Tommy James and the Shondells
The Lover
[Verse 1]
Little girl, look who is here now
To bring you cheer now
I'm the lover
You're sweet and you need a boy, dear
Who understands, dear
I'm the lover, yeah (He's the lover)

[Verse 2]
Love's game can make the world turn
It's time that you learn
I'm the lover
If you just set your heart free
I'm sure that you'll see
I'm the lover, yeah (He's the lover)

[Bridge]
I must confess to you
All the things they're saying aren't true
He thinks all your love is his
Here's the way it really is

[Outro]
Little girl, I really need you
He'll just deceive you
He's the lover (Oh, the lover)
He's the lover (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
He's the lover (Well, I'm talkin' about the lover)
He's the lover (He's comin' on strong, baby)
He's the lover
