[Chorus:]
Something's got a hold on me
Yeah must be love
Whoah something's got a hold on me right now
Yeah must be love

Well I got a feeling and I feel so strange
And everything about me seems to have changed
Step by step I gotta find me a walk
I even sound different when I talk

I said oh (oh) oh (oh) oh (oh) wow
Something's got a hold on me
And it must be love

[Chorus]

Well I never felt this way before
Something's got a hold on me and won't let go
Believe I'd fly just a whole day for you
It sounds so strange but it feels so good

I said oh (oh) oh (oh) oh (oh) wow
Something's got a hold on me
And it must be love

Well now my heart feels heavy and my feet feel light
I shake all over but I feel all right
I never thought this could happen to me
Well I'm in heaven when I'm in misery
Well I never thought this could be this way
Well I know baby that this is the day
Well I never thought it could be this way
But now you're gone It's been a-hurtin' on me

Somehting's got a hold on me
And it must be love

You know it's like love

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

To you my love
To you my love

Does she love me I wanna know
How can I tell if she loves me so

Is it in her eyes (No no you'll be deceived)
Is it in her sighs (No no she'll make believe)
If you wanna know if she loves you so
It's in her kiss (That's where it is)

Is it in her face (No no that's just her charms)
In her warm embrace (No no that's just her arms)
If you wanna know if she loves you so
It's in her kiss (That's where it is)
Oh yeah it's in her kiss (That's where it is)

So hold her and squeeze tight
Tell her what you wanna know
If it's love if it really is
It's there in her kiss

How 'bout the way she acts (No no that's just her way)
You're not listening to the words that I say
If you wanna know if she loves you so
It's in her kiss (That's where it is)
Oh yeah it's in her kiss (That's where it is)

[Verse 4]

[Verse 5]

Oh yeah it's in her kiss (That's where it is)

Don't you know it's time for love
Don't you know it's time for love
It's time to tell them about our love

Secretly you won my heart
Secretly you won my heart
Now all the world knows we'll never part

What can I do
What can I say
We both know we love each other
We both know we love each other

It's time to tell them about our love

[Chorus]

[Verse 1]

It's time to tell them about our love
Don't you know it's time for love

I'd be a fool not to realize
Just how much I needed your love
I'd be a fool not to realize
I'm the guy you're thinking of whoa

I don't want nobody new
In the future baby I'm gonna be true to you
What kind of boy do you think I am

I'd give you love and ecstasy
I ain't ever gonna break your heart
And you know and you know when I hold you close to me
You know it starts to tear me apart whoa

What kind of boy do you think I'd be
If I let other girls kiss on me
Oh can't you see
What kind of boy do you think I am

Here in your arms
I wanna be little girl
You give your love
So tenderly

[Verse 3]

[Chorus]

What kind of boy do you think I am
What kind of boy do you think I am
What kind of boy do you think I am

Runnin' to and fro
Hard workin' at the mail
Never fail with the mails
Still they get my posted bail

[Chorus:]
Too much monkey business
Too much monkey business
Too much monkey business
For me to be in by ten

Someone talkin' to me
Tryin' to run me up a creek
Says you can buy it
C'mon try it
You can pay me next week

[Chorus]

Blond haired good lookin'
Tryin' to get me hooked
Want me to marry get a home
Settle down write a book oh

[Chorus]

Workin' in the fillin' station
Too many checks
Check the windows
Check the tires
Check the oil
Goin' again

[Chorus]

I been to Yokohama
Been fightin' in the war
Army bunk army chow
Army crew army coat

[Chorus]

Telephone something wrong
Dial gone will mail
Hours to the operator
Tellin' me a tale

[Chorus]

Too much monkey business
For me to be in by ten
Too much monkey business
For me to be in by ten

I thought of you last night
I thought of you and thought of you
Until the morning light
I couldn't sleep I couldn't sleep last night

I wanted you last night
I wanted you and wanted you
And wished with all my might
You'd come to me you'd come to me last night

Darling my darling I can't live without you
I'm lonely so lonely when you're out of sight

I'll wait for tonight
I'll wait for you and wait for you
And long to hold you tight
Bring your love to me your love to me tonight

I thought of you last night
I thought of you and thought of you
Until the morning light
I couldn't sleep I couldn't sleep last night

I'll wait for tonight
I'll wait for you and wait for you
And long to hold you tight
Bring your love to me your love to me tonight
Bring your love to me your love to me tonight

Please don't feel too bad because I'm leaving
I'm coming home again to you
And when I go away I know you're grieving
Although you know that I'll be true

I'm wondering what to do to make you know you're mine
I'll take you in my arms and then all will be fine

And when I'm away from you you know I'll miss you
I want to feel your tender touch
And when I'm feeling blue I want to kiss you
I stay away from you too much

Please don't feel too bad because I'm leaving
I'm coming home again to you
And when I go away I know you're grieving
Although you know that I'll be true

I'm wondering what to do to make you know you're mine
I'll take you in my arms and then all will be fine

Whoa whoa yeah too much
Yeah yeah yeah too much
Whoa whoa whoa too much

I'm telling you
I'm telling you
I'm telling you to come on home

I've been told many times about you
About your lies that you've never been true
Now I found out
You left here on your own
Now I found out

But
I'm telling you
I'm telling you
I'm telling you to come on home

In the future darling be true
How many times has this happened to you But
I'm telling you
I'm telling you
I'm telling you to come on home

C'mon baby now

It's been too long since I kissed you
Much too long since I held you tight
Tonight yes tonight
You'll be mine

I've been told about your kisses
And I've thought about you every night
Tonight yes tonight
You'll be mine

I've made up my mind
Not to be left on the shelf
Now I'm sure to find you
And keep you to myself
I just think about you every day
When you're near and when you're far away
Tonight yes tonight
You'll be mine

[Repeat]

Walking down the street
Standing looking at me
If you don't wanna know me
How happy I will be
Don't cross over the street to me
If you don't want my love
Set me free

I see you walking by
Love light in your eye
I just remember all those lies
So don't cross over the street to me
If you don't want my love set me free

Baby can't you leave me alone
Baby why don't you go on home
Baby don't you know that we are through
I don't need your love so set me free

Why don't you realise
That you and I are through
Every day I see you make me blue
So don't cross over the street to me
If you don't want my love set me free
If you don't want my love set me free
If you don't want my love set me free
