Never My Love Lyrics


You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never My Love
Never my love

You wonder if this heart of mine
Will lose its desire for you
Never my love
Never my love

What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends
On you (on you)

Never my love
Never my love

You say you fear I'll change my mind
And I won't require you
Never my love
Never my love

How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life
With me (with me, with me)

Never My Love
  • This was written by the songwriting team of Don and Dick Addrisi. As The Addrisi Brothers, they went on to have hits with "We've Got To Get It On Again" and "Slow Dancin' Don't Turn Me On."

    Unlike "Cherish," which is often thought of as a love song but deals with the unrequited, slightly obsessive kind, "Never My Love" is a perfect wedding song, as it is about unrelenting devotion: "How can you think love will end when I've asked you to spend your whole life with me?"
  • According to BMI, which keeps track of such data, "Never My Love" was the second-most played song on American radio and television in the 20th century, trailing only "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" by the Righteous Brothers. Another Association song, "Cherish," was #22.
  • The 5th Dimension's live recording of "Never My Love" peaked in the US at #12 in 1971, and Blue Suede's uptempo 1974 version reached #7. (thanks, Rick - San Juan, Puerto Rico)
  • This was used in a TV commercial for Allstate insurance. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)
