I met a girl not long ago,
She had no friends, so I was told,
A face so pretty that looked so sad,
“Hey, girl, don’t feel so bad!”
Then she looked into my eyes,
She smiled at me, without a disguise,
She stole my heart and turned it to gold.
“Hey, girl, come stay with me,
You have troubles, I’ll set them free!
Follow your heart, don’t follow your mind
And you’ll see that our love is not blind.”

Nights go by, she fills my dreams.
“Is this girl mine? Like heaven it seems!”
Times we spend together are too short – it’s not fair,
I really don’t mind but I really do care.
“When I ask you to take my hand,
Hey, woman, can I be your man?
Marry me, for I love you so!”

Chorus
Never say you don’t care, just say you don’t mind,
A love like ours is so hard to find.
Our love is so right, our love is on time,
Never say you don’t care, just say you don’t mind.

Times are hard, days go by too fast,
Will the chain hold or will it last?
Nobody’s perfect, we all know it’s true,
But no matter what happens I’ll still be loving you.

Chorus

Now my girl has left me and gone too,
I have no one to sing this song to.
I cry for her love, her pretty face,
Hoping she’ll be back with open arms to embrace.
Then I’ll look into her eyes,
I’ll smile at her, without a disguise,
I’ll steal her heart and turn it to gold!

Chorus

“Hey, girl, come stay with me,
You have troubles, I’ll set them free!
Follow your heart, don’t follow your mind
And you’ll see that our love,
And you’ll see that our love,
And you’ll see that our love is not blind.”
