UK #2 for Diana Ross in 1991
The same melody was used for Quando sento che mi ami (When you tell me that you love me is the original).
Julio Iglesias (recording artist): This was a song by Albert Hammond and John Betts that Diana Ross had already done before me, but no one told me that. We wanted to do something with Dolly Parton because it seemed like such a perfect idea. Dolly has such a lovely voice and is such a professional lady who is attractive in every sense of the word. Nothing big ever really happened with the song, but it's still a very good one. (Julio Iglesias' official website)
I wanna call the stars down from the sky
I wanna live a day that never dies
I wanna change the world only for you
All the impossible I wanna do
I wanna hold you close under the rain
I wanna kiss your smile and feel the pain
I know what's beautiful looking at you
In a world of lies you are the truth
And, baby, everytime you touch me I become a hero
I'll make you safe no matter where you are
And bring you everything you ask for, nothing is above me
I'm shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
I wanna make you see just what I was
Show you the loneliness and what it does
You walked into my life to stop my tears
Everything's easy now, I have you here
And, baby, everytime you touch me I become a hero
I'll make you safe no matter where you are
And bring you everything you ask for, nothing is above me
I'm shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
In a world without you I would always hunger
All I need is your love to make me stronger
And, baby, everytime you touch me I become a hero
I'll make you safe no matter where you are
And bring you everything you ask for, nothing is above me
I'm shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
You love me
When you tell me that you love me
