Dododo dobedodododododododo dododo oh yeah

For quite some time I been trying my very best  
Hope to get real close to you  
It seems my best efforts had no real effect  
And there's no way that I can get through to you
  
So my intentions are strictly honorable  
Throughout the years that I've known you  
Hoping within your heart you'll be there, willing and able  
See I want you and this time I gotta get you
 
Hard to get, is there something that I'm doing wrong  
Hard to get, oh yeah is that the game you're playing  
Hard to get, oh girl won't you stop for wasting time  
Hard to get, oh yeah can't you see I wanna make you mine 
 
See I've been trying so many ways to win your attention 
But it seems I can't please you  
Though within your eyes I can see true affection  
Your body language can't lie to me
 
My devotion is strongest on the level  
My direction leads only to you 
So deep within me only you seem able
To give me love I could never forget
 
[Chorus]
Hard to get, surely I'm not mistaken  
Hard to get, my love is true and that's for sure  
Hard to get, won't you stop playing games with my affection  
Hard to get, this love I'm offering is all for you  
Oh oh yeah oh yeah 
 
You're trying to make me feel my chances are weaker  
'Cause every day you're playing hide and seak  
And I'm sending messages to you right around the clock  
I'm still waiting, say you never answer back
 
[Chorus]
 
See I've been trying so many ways to win your attention  
But it seems I can't please you  
Though within your eyes I can see true affection  
Your body language can't lie to me
 
My devotion is strongest on the level  
My direction leads only to you  
So deep within me only you seem able  
To give me love I could never forget
 
[Chorus] 
 
You're trying to make me feel my chances are weaker  
'Cause every day you're playing hide and seek  
And I'm sending messages to you right around the clock  
I'm still waiting, say you never answer back
 
[Chorus]
 
I can see you want it 
Makes no sense you're hiding
Oh oh oh yeah yeah
