Lyrics
I’m telling you now
I’m telling you right away
I’ll be saying for many a day
I’m in love with you now
I’m telling you now
I’ll say what you wanna hear
I’ll be telling you for many a year
I’m in love with you now
Do you think I’m foolin’
When I say, “I love you?” I love you
Maybe you’ll believe me
When I’m finally through
Through, through, through
I’m telling you now
I know it’s been said before
Say you love me, and I will be sure
I’m in love with you now
I’m telling you now
I’m telling you right away
I’ll be saying for many a day
I’m in love with you now
Do you think I’m foolin’
When I say, “I love you?” I love you
Maybe you’ll believe me
When I’m finally through
Through, through, through
I’m telling you now
I know it’s been said before
Say you love me, and I will be sure
I’m in love with you now
I’m in love with you now
I’m telling you now
