Darling, darling, darling
If you should say we're through
I would sell my heart for a penny
'cause it's worthless to me without you
Oh, oh, oh
With these arms I hold you
That's all I use them for
I would sell these arms for a penny
If they couldn't hold you any more
In other words I seem to have nothing at all
Unless I have you by my side
Without you my whole world would crumble and fall
But with you I'm so satisfied
Oh, oh darling, darling, darling
I swear by up above
For a penny, for a penny, for a penny
I'd give all that I own for your love
I'd give all that I own for your love

Charles Eugene Boone, known professionally as Pat Boone, is an American entertainer born on June 1, 1934, in Jacksonville, Florida. He began his music career in the 1950s with a string of pop hits that made him one of the decade's most popular singers. Boone was known for his clean-cut and catchy interpretations of traditional songs and jazz standards, often reworking rock and roll hits into versions more suitable for a wider audience. Among his most famous successes are "Love Letters in the Sand", "Tutti Frutti" (a gospel version of Little Richard's original), and "Ain't That a Shame". Besides music, Boone has acted in films and television series, written books, and engaged in various entrepreneurial activities. He is also an active philanthropist and radio host.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
