Verse 1

  Many guys have come to you

With a line that wasn't true

  And you passed them by (passed them by)

  Now you're in the center ring

And their lines don't mean a thing

  Why don't you let me try (let me try)

  Now I don't wear a diamond ring

  I don't even have a song to sing

  All I know is

Chorus

  La la la la la la la la la means

  [harmonies imply ]

I love you

  [1: Oh, baby please now

2: Oh... baby]

  La la la la la la la la la means

  [harmonies imply ]

I love you

Verse 2

If I ever saw a girl

That I needed in this world

You are the one for me (one for me)

Let me hold me in my arms

Girl, and thrill you with my charms

I'm sure you will see (you will see)

The things I am sayin' are true

And the way I explain them to you

Listen to me
