I should have known better with a girl like you, 
That I would love everything that you do; and I do, 
Hey, hey, hey, and I do. 

Whoa, oh, I never realized what a kiss could be, 
This could only happen to me
Can't you see, can't you see

That when I tell you that I love you, oh, 
You're gonna say you love me too, 
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, oh

And when I ask you to be mine, 
You're gonna say you love me too. 
You love me too, you love me too.
