(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh)
How many years have to pass me by? (ah, ooh, ooh, ah, ooh, ah, ooh)
How many tears must this poor girl cry?
Fitting that I see you at the masquerade
Where you were showin' off the pretty mask that you made
(Think about you)
And the love that we never made
(Dream about you)
All the things you said to me
(I wanna go out with you)
Won't you come jive with me, sweetheart?
(Obviously as they say)
Far too late (late)
When I'm up
There ain't no king who can pull me down
I'll be throwing the wildest parties
Have all my friends about
Well, you think they wouldn't love
Oh, the way they drop your name
Then I'm not bad to be in blue again
(Think about you)
And the love that we never made
(Dream about you)
Oh, baby, the things you said to me
(I wanna go out with you)
Won't you come jive with me, sweetheart?
(Obviously as they say)
Far too late (late), late in the day
Far too late (late), late in the day
How many years have to pass me by? (pass me by)
(Oh) how many tears must I cry?
Oh, how many years?
(How many years have to pass me by?)
How many years am I gonna cry over you?
(Ooh, how many tears must I cry?)
Oh, oh, how many tears, how many tears I'm gonna cry?
