I get high when I see you go by,
My oh my!
When you sigh my my inside just flies,
Butterfly.

Why am I so shy
When I’m beside you?

It’s only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It’s only love and that is all,
But it’s so hard loving you.

Is it right that you and I should fight
Every night
Just the sight of you make night time bright,
Very bright.
Haven’t I the right
To make it up girl?

It’s only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It’s only love and that is all,
But it’s so hard loving you,
Yes it’s so hard loving you, loving you.
