Everyone falls in love sometime
And sometimes it's wrong
And sometimes it's right
But for every, for every, every, every, every win

Someone, someone, someone, someone
Someone, someone, someone must fail, yes
But there comes a point when, oh yeah, ooh
When you exhale, yo, say, say

Shoop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop

Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doo

Hearts are often broken
When there are words unspoken
In your soul there's answers to your prayers
But if you're searching for

A place you know a familiar face
Somewhere to go
You should search inside yourself
And you're halfway there

Sometimes you'll laugh and sometimes you'll cry
Life never tells us the when's or why's
But when you've got friends to wish you well
You'll find a point when you will exhale

Shoop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop

Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doo
