Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Who's that girl? The language of love Slips from my lover's tongue Cooler than ice cream And warmer than the sun Dumb hearts get broken Just like China cups The language of love Has left me broken on the rocks But there's just one thing Just one thing But there's just one thing And I really wanna know Who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl? The language of love Has left me stony gray Tongue tied and twisted At the price I've had to pay Your careless notions Have silenced these emotions Look at all the foolishness Your lover's talk has done Who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl? But there's just one thing Just one thing But there's just one thing Tell me, tell me Who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl Running around with you? Tell me, who's that girl Running around with you?
