And if I say,
I really knew you well what would your answer be?
If you were here today

Ooh- ooh- ooh, here to-day.

Well knowing you, 
You'd probably laugh and say that we were world's apart.
If you were here today

Ooh- ooh- ooh, here to-day.

But as for me,
I still remember how it was before,
And I am holding back these tears no more

Ooh- ooh ooh, I love you, ooh.

What about the time we met?
Well, I suppose that you could say that we were playing hard to get.
Didn't understand a thing,
But we could always sing.

What about the night we cried,
Because there was no reasons left to keep it all inside?
Didn't understood a word,
But you were always there - with a smile.

And if I say,
I really loved you and was glad you came along.
If you were here today.

Ooh- ooh- ooh, for you were in my song.

Ooh- ooh- ooh, here to-day.
