That girl I love doesn't even know I exist
Every time I see her, I'm in a fix
How can I tell her I need her so?
When in her eyesight, I'm just nice to know
Ooh-ooh, I love her so
Ooh-ooh, I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, that girl
That girl is fabulous in every way
I just can't seem to find the right words to say
I want to tell her just how I feel (Just how I feel)
But the words are lingering inside me still
Ooh-ooh, I love her so
Ooh-ooh, I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
(That girl, that girl)
I want to beg, girl, on bended knees
But the one I love will be looking down on me
So I'll only go on looking lost and confused (Lost and confused)
And now there's nothing else that's worthwhile to do
Ooh-ooh, I love her so
Ooh-ooh, I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
I love her so
(That girl, that girl)
I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Ooh, ooh
Every time I see her, I'm in a fix
How can I tell her I need her so?
When in her eyesight, I'm just nice to know
Ooh-ooh, I love her so
Ooh-ooh, I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, that girl
That girl is fabulous in every way
I just can't seem to find the right words to say
I want to tell her just how I feel (Just how I feel)
But the words are lingering inside me still
Ooh-ooh, I love her so
Ooh-ooh, I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
(That girl, that girl)
I want to beg, girl, on bended knees
But the one I love will be looking down on me
So I'll only go on looking lost and confused (Lost and confused)
And now there's nothing else that's worthwhile to do
Ooh-ooh, I love her so
Ooh-ooh, I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
I love her so
(That girl, that girl)
I want her to know
Nah-nah, nah-nah, nah, that girl
(That girl, that girl)
Ooh, ooh
