Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They're the same kind of stars that I see in your eyes
I love you, yes, I do
Oh, won't you tell me why
Tell my why, tell me why, tell me why, why my heart skips a beat
Every time that you're near, every time that we meet
I love you, yes, I do
Tell me why I love you so
You know my heart will never let you go
You know my love for you is on the square
When I wake up in the morning I want you right there
Tell me why, tell me why my heart skips a beat
Every time that you're near, every time that we meet
I love you, yes, I do
Oh, won't you tell me why, tell me why
Tell me why I love you so
You know my heart will never let you go
You know my love for you is on the square
When I wake up in the morning I want you right there
Tell me why, tell me why my heart skips a beat
Every time that you're near, every time that we meet
I love you, yes, I do
Oh, won't you tell me why, tell me why
