Why must you cry, girl? Don't you know that I
You know I dearly
Love you madly
You know I dearly
Love you madly
And I always will
All of my life
I have wanted
A girl just like you
To pick me up
When I'm down, down, down
To let me love you
Love I pound, pound, pound
And I know this girl is you
So tell me
Why must you cry, girl?
Don't you know that I
You know I dearly
Love you madly
You know I dearly
Love you madly
I've told you before
And I'll tell you again
The love that you give me
Is oh so very much like a precious gem
To hold to the end
And to cherish, my darling
Over and over again
But I can't understand why
You have no faith in me
You say that you've been hurt before
That's what you told me
By selfish playboys
Playboys
Love, I may be selfish
For wanting you like I do
But no, girl, I'm not the plain kind
So tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Why
Why must you cry, girl?
Don't you know that I
You know I dearly
Love you madly
I love you
Love you madly
Love you the only one I could ever love
Love you madly
I tried to make you realize
That I love you
Love you madly
All you, I could never, never, never claim
That I love you
So why
Love you madly
No, no, no, no
