Lyrics

  1. All day long you’re asking me
    What I see in you
    All day long I’m answering
    But what good does it do?
    I have nothing to explain
    I just love you, love you
    And I’ll tell you once again

Chorus
I don’t know why I love you like I do
I don’t know why I just do
I don’t know why you thrill me like you do
I don’t know why you just do
You never seem to want my romancing
The only time you hold me is when we’re dancing
I don’t know why I love you like I do
I don’t know why I just do

2.You’re as mean as you can be
Always love to scold
But you treat your other friends
Quite decently, I’m told
I should really hate you, dear
And, in face, I guess I do
Except when you are near
