About Richard Hamersma


 




Before the Lovin' Starts

Richard Hamersma with Phil Kimbrough

Genre: Adult Contemporary/Love Song

What do we really need to know before committing to a love relationship? Would it be better to question ourselves rather than the other person before being ready to commit?


Separated from what's in style

Who can tell from just a smile
What’s underneath or what’s just style
Who can separate the truth from all the lies
I’ve been wrong before fooled by loving eyes

So I wanna tell you
I want you to know
I wanna go easy baby
I want to go slow
There’s no use in guessing
What lies within your heart
I wanna be sure
Before the lovin’ starts

Who can ever tell from just a few words
What’s just a line and what it’s all worth
Who can really be sure from a single touch of a hand
That you’re the one for me and I’m your lovin’ woman

So I wanna tell you
I want you to know baby
I wanna go easy baby
I want to go slow
I don’t want to end up with
Another broken heart
I wanna be sure
Before the lovin’ starts

I’m still willing
To give love a chance
Knowing there’s no simple rule
We can either win or we can lose
But I know yes I know
I won’t be your fool

So I wanna tell you
I want you to know
I wanna go easy baby
I’ve got to go slow
There’s no use in guessing
What lies within your heart
I wanna be sure
Before the lovin’ starts

Chorus
