This Love Of Mine

Well, some boys don't believe that you can have much fun 
And that's why you oughta know about this love of mine 
Sticking with one girl as their only one 
And that's why you oughta know about this love I have 
I want them to throw me a glance, give me a little chance 
I'll tell them personally a song about a real romance 
I knew I was going to wait for her when I didn't have a sign 
And that's why you oughta know about this love of mine 

Well some girls don't believe that a boy can stay 
And that's why they oughta know about this love of mine 
They think the boy has got to turn around one day 
And that's why they oughta know about this love of mine 
They're gonna think "Ah-oh, it won't work", They'll think "I'm gonna 
look like a jerk" 
"I tried it in the first grade and all I got was hurt 
But I knew I would wait for her when I didn't have a sign 
And that's why they oughta know about this love of mine 

Well now, Mister Realistic aren't you feeling kind of cold 
And that's why you oughta know about this love of mine 
You've forgotten what it feels to be five years old 
And that's why you oughta know about this love I got 
I want you to put down your glass, give me a little chance 
I'm gonna sing a song about a real romance 
I knew I would wait for her when I didn't have a sign 
And that's why they oughta know about this love of mine
