  • (Don, don, don, don-don, don, don-don)
    (Do-do-do-do-don, don)
    (Don-don, don, do-do-do-do-do)
    Don't know why I love you like I do
    (Don, don-don, don)
    Don't know why I do
    (Do-do)

    Don't know why I love you
    Don't know why I care
    I just want your love to share (don, don-don, don, do-da)

    I wonder why, I love you like I do (don, don-don, don, do-da)
    Is it because I think you love me too (da-da-da, don, don, do-da)
    I wonder why, I love you like I do
    Like I do (dan, dan, dan, dan, dan, da-dan)
    (Da-da-da-da-dan, dan, dan, da-da-da-dan)

    Oh

    Oh-oh-oh
    Ooh-ooh-oh-ooh
    Ah
    Wap
    Wap
    Wap, wap, wap, wap, wap

    I told my friends that we would never part (da-da-da, don, don, do-da)
    They often said that you would break my heart (don, don-don, don, do-da)
    I wonder why they think that we will part
    We will part

    Da, da, da, don, da, da, da
    Da, Pa, ah, pa, ah
    dero, dero, pa
    Duru, pa
    Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
    Pa, pa, pa, ah
    Wap
    Wap
    Wap, wap, wap, wap, wap

    When you're with me, I'm sure you're always true (da-da-da, don, don, do-da)
    When I'm away, I wonder what you do (don, don-don, don, do-da)
    I wonder why I'm sure you're always true
    Always true

    Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
    Don't know why I do
    Oh
    Oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh
