[Verse 1]
Oh, oh, oh, now
Never met a girl who makes me feel the way that you do
You're alright, ha
Whenever I'm asked who makes my dreams real, I tell 'em you do
You're outta sight
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh (Fee-fi), fee-fi-fo-fum (Look out)
Look out 'cause here I come
[Chorus]
And I'm bringing you a love that's true
So get ready (Get ready), get ready 'cause
I'm gonna try to make you love me too
So get ready (Get ready), ready 'cause here I come
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') Said I'm on my way
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') Oh yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
If you wanna play hide and seek with love, let me remind you
(It's alright) It's alright
(It's alright) Alright
But the lovin' you're gonna miss in the time it takes to find you
It's outta sight
[Pre-Chorus]
Tweedley-dee, tweedley-dum (Look out)
Look out 'cause here I come
[Chorus]
And I'm bringing you a love that's true
So get ready (Get ready), get ready 'cause
I'm gonna try to make you love me too
So get ready (Get ready) 'cause here I come
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') Oh, I'm on my way
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin')
[Bridge]
I'm on my way now
Mmm
[Verse 3]
If all of my friends should want you too, I'll understand it
Be alright (Alright)
I better hope I get to you before they do, the way I planned it
Be outta sight (Be outta sight)
[Pre-Chorus]
Fiddley-dee, fiddley-dum (Look out)
Look out 'cause here I come
[Chorus]
I'm bringing you a love that's true
So get ready (Get ready), ah, get ready 'cause
I'm gonna try to make you love me too
So get ready (Get ready), ready 'cause here I come
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') I'm on my way
(Get ready) Be there to stay
[Outro]
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') I'm on my way now
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') You better get ready
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') I'm on my way
(Get ready, here I come, I'm comin') Better get ready
(Get ready, here I come)
