  • Every time he sees me
    He pretends that he can´t see
    And though it hurts me badly
    I know my baby loves me
    Cause every night when the lights are low
    I hear somebody at my door
    I know it’s him out there
    And I know that I still care
    For my baby

    Both his Mom and his Daddy
    Say that he shouldn’t see me
    And it hurts me so badly
    And he thinks they’re being so silly
    But he still listens to what they say
    So I’ll be patient and wait for the day
    They realize he’s a man
    Then they’ll understand
    That he loves me.

    Why can’t they leave us alone?
    To live a life of our own
    We’re not hurting anyone
    We just want a chance
    To show them that this love is gonna last

    Oh, oh, oh

    La, la, la, la, la, la,
    La, la, la, la, la, la
    La, la, la, la, la, la
    La, la, la, la, la,

    But He still listens to what they say
    So I’ll be patient and wait for the day
    They realize he’s a man,
    Then they’ll understand
    That he love me


    He loves me
    That man loves me
    Why can’t they leave us alone?
    To live a life of our own
    Cause my baby loves me and he needs me
    I need him too, yes I do
    I need my baby, yea, my baby
    Why can’t they leave us alone?
    To live a life of our own
    I need my baby, my baby
    It hurts me so badly
    It hurts me so badly
    Oh, oh, oh Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
