KOMM GIB MIR DEINE HAND - “I Want to Hold Your Hand” (English)

Music: The Beatles - German Lyrics: Camillo Felgen

O come, come to me
You drive me out of my mind
O come, come to me
Come give me your hand
Come give me your hand
Come give me your hand

O you are so pretty
as pretty as a diamond
I want to go with you
Come give me your hand
Come give me your hand
Come give me your hand

In your arms I'm happy and glad
It was never that way with anyone else
never that way, never that way

O come, come to me
You drive me out of my mind
O come, come to me
Come give me your hand
Come give me your hand
Come give me your hand

In your arms I'm happy and glad
It was never that way with anyone else
never that way, never that way

Oh you are so pretty
as pretty as a diamond
I want to go with you
Come give me your hand...
