(Don抰 let him get you down.)

(He抯 not the only boy around)

And you---you shouldn抰 be so blue.

I know there抣l be another time.

But I抣l be his.

(No, you抣l be mine.)

(Don抰 let him get you down)

He抯 the boy I want around and you.

(You know I抣l always be around.)

And you---you shouldn抰 be so blue.
