Lyrics

[Chorus]
All a my love, all a my kissin'
You don't know what you been a-missin'
Oh boy (Oh boy)
When a-you're with me
Oh boy (Oh boy)
The a-world can see that you a-were meant for me
[Verse 1]
All a my life, I been a-waitin'
Tonight there'll be no hesitatin'
Oh boy (Oh boy)
When you're with me
Oh boy (Oh boy)
The a-world can see that you a-were meant for me
[Bridge]
Stars appear and the shadows are fallin'
A-you can hear my heart a-callin'
A little bit a lovin' makes everything a-right
And I'm gonna see my baby tonight
[Chorus]
All a my love, all a my kissin'
You don't know what you been a-missin'
Oh boy (Oh boy)
When you're with me
Oh boy (Oh boy)
The a-world can see that you a-were meant for me
[Bridge]
Dum-dee-dum-dum, oh boy
Dum-dee-dum-dum, oh boy
Ah
Ah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Chorus]
All a my love, all a my kissin'
You don't know what you been a-missin'
Oh boy (Oh boy)
Whena-you're with me
Oh boy (Oh boy)
The a-world can see that you a-were meant for me
[Verse 2]
All a my life, I been a-waitin'
Tonight there'll be no hesitatin'
Oh boy (Oh boy)
When you're with me
Oh boy (Oh boy)
The world can see that you a-were meant for me
[Bridge]
Stars appear and the shadows are fallin'
A-you can hear my heart a-callin'
A little bit a lovin' makes everything a-right
A-I'm gonna see my baby tonight
[Chorus]
All a my love, all a my kissin'
You don't know what you been a-missin'
Oh boy (Oh boy)
When a-you're with me
Oh boy (Oh boy)
The world can see that you a-were meant for me
