[Chorus 1]
Oh yeah, I tell you something
I think you'll understand
Then I'll say that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your ha-a-a-a-a-and
I wanna hold your hand

[Chorus 2]
Oh please, say to me
That you will be my man
And please say to me
You'll let me hold your hand
Now, let me hold your ha-a-a-a-a-and
I wanna to hold your hand

[Bridge]
And when I touch you
I feel happy inside
It's such a feeling that my love
I can't hide
I can't hide
I can't hide

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, you got that something
I think you'll understand
When I say that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your ha-a-a-a-a-and
I wanna hold your hand

[Bridge]
And when I touch you
I feel happy inside
It's such a feeling that my love

I can't hide

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, you got that something
I think you'll understand
When I say that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand

[Outro]
I wanna hold your ha-a-a-a-a-and
