A letra:


Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la



It's not the way you smile that touched my heart
(Sha-la-la-la-la)
It's not the way you kiss that tears me apart

But, oh, many many many nights roll by
I sit alone at home and cry over you
What can I do, I can't help myself

'Cause, baby, it's you (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Baby, it's you (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)
(Sha-la-la-la-la)



You should hear what they say about you (cheat, cheat)
(Sha-la-la-la-la)
They say, they say you never never never been true (cheat, cheat)

Wo ho, it doesn't matter what they say
I know I'm gonna love you any old way
What can I do, when it's true
I Don't want nobody, nobody
'Cause, baby, it's you (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Baby, it's you (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)



But, oh, many many many nights roll by
I sit alone at home and cry over you
What can I do, I can't help myself

'Cause, baby, it's you (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Baby, it's you (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Don't leave me all alone (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Come on home (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Baby it's you..
