Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Let me tell you 'bout a boy I know
He is my baby and he lives next door
Every morning 'fore the sun comes up
He brings my coffee in my favorite cup
[Verse 2]
That's why I know, yes, I know
Hallelujah, I just love him so
[Verse 3]
When I'm in trouble and I have no friends
I know he'll go with me until the end
Everybody ask me how I know
I smile at them and say, he told me so
[Verse 4]
That's why I know, I know
Hallelujah, I just love him so
[Verse 5]
Now if I call him on the telephone
And tell him that I'm all alone
By the time I count from one to four
I hear him knock, knock, knock, knock on my door
[Verse 6]
In the evening when the sun goes does
When there is nobody else around
He kisses me and he holds me tight
And tells me, baby, everything's alright
[Verse 7]
That's why I know, I know
Hallelujah, I just love him so
[Verse 8]
Now if I call him on the telephone
And tell him that I'm all alone
By the time I count from one to four
I hear him knock, knock, knock, knock on my door
[Verse 9]
In the evening when the sun goes does
When there is nobody else around
He kisses me and he holds me tight
And tells me, baby, everything's alright
[Verse 10]
That's why I know, yes, I know
Hallelujah, I just love him so
Hallelujah, I just love him so
Hallelujah, I just love him so
Hallelujah
