I hear songs on the radio They might be fast or they might be slow But every song they play's got me thinkin' 'bout you I see a fella walkin' down the street He looks at me and he smiles real sweet But he don't matter to me 'Cause I'm thinkin' 'bout you Every little dream I dream about you Every little thought I think about you Drives me crazy when you go away I oughta keep you locked up at home And like a wild horse I want to break you I love you so much I hate you Every little thing reminds me of you Honey when you leave me here all alone My tongue gets tied when I try to talk My knees get weak when I start to walk So I might as well stay home and keep thinkin' 'bout you "the young and the restless" on my tv set That's just like us when we first met And when they start to kissin' Got me thinking bout you Every little dream I dream about you Every little thought I think about you Drives me crazy when you go away I oughta keep you locked up at home And like a wild horse I want to break you I love you so much I hate you Every little thing reminds me of you Honey when you leave me here all alone Every little dream I dream about you Every little thought I think about you Drives me crazy when you go away I oughta keep you locked up at home And like a wild horse I want to break you I love you so much I hate you Every little thing reminds me of you Honey when you leave me here all alone
