Though i've tried before to tell him
Of the feelings I have for him
In my heart
Every time that I come near him
I just loose my nerve like I've done
From the start
Cause every little thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
Do I have to tell the story?
Of the thousand rainy days
Since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me
Who ends up getting wet
Cause every lil thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
I resolve to call him up
A thousand times a day
And ask him if he'll marry me
In some old fashioned way
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reached the phone
Long before my tongues tripped me
Must i always be alone
Cause every little thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
Cause every little thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
Goes on goes on
Of the feelings I have for him
In my heart
Every time that I come near him
I just loose my nerve like I've done
From the start
Cause every little thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
Do I have to tell the story?
Of the thousand rainy days
Since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me
Who ends up getting wet
Cause every lil thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
I resolve to call him up
A thousand times a day
And ask him if he'll marry me
In some old fashioned way
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reached the phone
Long before my tongues tripped me
Must i always be alone
Cause every little thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
Cause every little thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
Goes on goes on
