The sheet music:


Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

I met you and ever since
You’ve been on my mind
I’m getting nowhere, and it’s not my fault
You seem to take me with a grain of salt
You’re not easy to convince
You’re the doubting kind
Why don’t you believe
Nothing’s up my sleeve

Chorus
Oo, I’m head and heels in love with you
So help me
Oo, I’m gonna stick to you like glue
So help me
Thought you never told me where I stand
You’re a part of everything I’ve planned and
Oo, I’m gonna make your dreams come true
So help me
Oo, I’m gonna make you love me, too
But darling, maybe I’ve bitten off
Much more than I can chew
And I may need a lot of help
So help me
