I'm a wreck, I'll admit it.  I can't eat when he's near.

And I'm so tired and nervous that you better stay clear.

Leave me to the company of me if I can't have him

I'm trying to be tender.  I'm trying to be cool.

I'm going to write him a letter, gonna put it in words.
      Eb                       C
Gonna make it official.  Gonna make it absurd.
         Bb
Hold up then, there a second, girl.

You'll spoil what you have to do

They're a sweet loving couple. How could you come between?
        Eb                           C
All the talk and the tenderness, the love and the feeling
    Bb                     Eb                   D       D7
His eyes start to sparkle--sparks for the other girl.

I'm in love with his face. I'm in love with his eyes.
        Eb                                 Bb
I could eat them for breakfast. Boy, would he be surprised.
      Cm                        Gm                 Ab  Ab G Gb F
If he knew how I felt, it would spoil any chance I had.

I better take it
