Girl, we're gonna send you someone to love

[Verse 1:]
Heaven must have sent you to me
And I'm not gonna let you go back
I'm gonna love you till the stars don't shine
And angels start dressing in black

I wanna shout "Hallelujah"
Oh, heart I've finally fooled ya
Somebody strike up the band
I've got a good, good feeling

[Chorus:]
Doobedood'ndoo doobedood'ndoobe doobedood'ndoo
Oh, doobedood'ndoobe doobedood'ndoobe doobedood'ndoo
Oh, doobedood'ndoobe doobedood'ndoobe doobedood'ndoo
I love you, yes I do
Doobedood'ndoo

[B-Section:]
I just started living
The day you started giving your love to me
And now music fills my soul
It sounds just like a rock 'n' roll symphony
Listen to the music in my soul
Ahhhh

[Verse 2:]
I see words inside your eyes
They beg me not to leave
Could it be we might have passed
On the same road to loneliness
Let us put bad memories
Of our past up on the shelf
(And leave them there forever)
And give ourselves a second chance
To enjoy love's priceless wealth

Don't it make you wanna shout "Hallelujah"
When you're feeling love go through you?
Somebody strike up the band
Here it comes again

[Chorus:]

[B-Section]

[Chorus]

I just started living
The day you started giving your love to me

[Chorus]

I just started living
The day you started giving your love to me
