I fell in love with a girl I fell in love once and almost completely She's in love with the world, But sometimes these feelings can be so misleading She turns and says, "are you alright?" I said I must be fine 'cause my hearts still beating Come and kiss me by the riverside Yeah Bobby said its fine, he don't consider it cheating now Red hair with a curl Mellow roll for the flavor and the eyes for peeping Can't keep away from the girl These two sides of my brain need to have a meeting Can't think of anything to do yeah my left brain knows that all love is fleeting She's just looking for something new And I said it once before but it bears repeating, now (Aah, aah, aah, aah) (Aah, aah, aah, aah) (Aah, aah, aah, aah) (Aah, aah, aah, aah) Can't think of anything to do Yeah my left brain knows that all love is fleeting She's just looking for something new, well I said it once before but it bears repeating Fell in love with a girl I fell in love once and almost completely She's in love with the world But sometimes these feelings can be so misleading She turns and says "are you alright?" I said I must be fine because my hearts still beating Come and kiss me by the riverside Yeah Bobby said its fine, he don't consider it cheating, now (Aah, aah, aah, aah) (Aah, aah, aah, aah) (Aah, aah, aah, aah) (Aah, aah, aah, aah) Can't think of anything to do yeah My left brain knows that all love is fleeting She's just looking for something new Well I've said once before but it bears repeating, now
