Intro: #1. Everybody tells me I'm a fool and I'm just wastin' time to love someone who's not in love with me. Friends all say that I'm a dope to stay in love when there's no hope. But I'm a dope who loves him hopelessly. What can I do (sha-la-la-la-la-la) hey, what can I say? (sha-la-la-la-la-la.) Each time I try to say goodbye, his lips get in the way..(sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.) Oh, yeah, his lips get in the way. (sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.) #2. He says my love don't mean a thing but still he keeps me on a string. I'm just someone he likes to have around. I say I want no more of this but then he stops me with a kiss. I can't resist him though he puts me down. What can I do (sha-la-la-la-la-la) hey, what can I say? (sha-la-la-la-la-la.) Each time I try to say goodbye, his lips get in the way..(sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.) Oh, yeah, his lips get in the way. (sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.) #3. Everybody calls me fool, they say, hey girl, go back to school and learn the things that every girl should know. But I guess I've got no brains because my foolish heart remains, I just can't break the chains and let him go, no no..so.. What can I do (sha-la-la-la-la-la) hey, what can I say? (sha-la-la-la-la-la.) Each time I try to say goodbye, his lips get in the way..(sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.) Oh, yeah, his lips get in the way. (sha-la-la-sha-la-la-la-la.)(oh, yeah) OUTRO: His lips get in the way (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.) His lips get in the way (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.)..(Fade.)
