英國威爾斯實力歌姬[雪莉貝西]──音樂劇/流行抒情曲──[Its Yourself/是你自己]
Its yourself I love, dont you know
More than anyone, more than me
When you want my love, dont you know
What you went and done, dont you see
If theres anything left to give
Ill give it to you
If theres any life I have to live
Ill live it for you
Whats my happiness
Whats my wealth
Whats my everything
Its yourself
If theres anything left to give
Ill give it to you
If theres any life I have to live
Ill live it for you
Whats my happiness
Whats my wealth
Whats my everything
Its yourself!
