La, la, la...
Only in the time it takes to tell you
For not to tell, but to know is wrong...
Only in the time it takes to warn you;
I've known it all by myself to long...

(You've known it all to yourself to long, girl...)

La, la, la, oh...
Only in the time it takes to tease you;
Don't be dismayed by my subtle ways...
Only in the time it takes to kiss you;
I've wasted so many precious days...

I've known too long - this can't go on...

Now that I have found a way, it's up to me;
"Oh... by the way..."
"Oh, by the way..." "Oh, by the way..."

Now that I have found a way, it's up to me;
"Oh... by the way..."
"Oh, by the way..." "Oh, by the way..."
