You're the Girl I Love Songtext

von Steve Goodman

I'm gonna tell everybody I see just how much you mean to me
I'm your boy and I'm gonna talk all about the beautiful
Way you walk -
Make everybody sad and blue 'cause they can't
Spend their lives with you.
Tell all the fish in the deep blue sea
Tell all the boats in the Queen's navy
Say it real quiet, say it out loud
Say it in private, say it in a crowd
Read it to the blind and show it to the deaf--
Look in the mirror and remind myself
That no one has ever known a love so true
One of these days whatever I do,
I'm gonna have to find a way to tell you
That you're the girl I love.

I'm gonna tell everybody I see just how much you mean to me
Travel this world from pole to pole
Telling everyone about your beautiful soul,
And to whom it may concern
All the other boys will have to wait their turn.
Tell it every night and every day of the year
Tell it to the people who don't want to hear.
Tell it to the birds way up in the trees
Tell it to the judge and the chief of police.
Tell all those I told you so's
Just where they can pin that rose
Tell it to the good book up on the shelf
And now at the risk of repeating myself

No one has ever known a love so true
One of these days whatever I do
I'm gonna have to find a way to tell you
That you're the girl I love.
