Last night I walked through the, Streets of my town, I saw the shadow of a girl I had know, And through the shadows I could see many tears, And so I walked up and I said Hey! Little girl, Let me fix your broken heart, I'll replace each broken part that's gone, Because I know why. you cry-why-why, Hey! Little girl my hearts been broken to. Do you remember, last September? When I met you at a dance, You were with a guy name Joe, Then all at once he said you had to go, I never even caught your name. (Oh yeah!) Hey! Little girl, I've been searching everywhere, Here, there, everywhere, for you, Because I have cried for you-you-you, Hey! Little girl, I'm so in love with you. Hey! Little girl, I can see that he was mean, He shattered all the dreams you had, So come with me and see-e-e, Hey! Little girl, I'll make all your dreams come true. Ooh yeah, come little girl I'll make all your dreams come true.
