(dh) 
Feelin' blue
Over you,
Dreamin' on,
Schemin' on,
Wonderin' what I'll do!
It's no fun,
You're the one,
Oh can't you see
Just what's troublin' me?

(all)
I'd love to call you my sweetheart,
Honest I love you, I do!
(dh)
I cry for you in the daytime,
When I sleep I dream of you!

(all)
I've always wanted a sweetheart,
That's why I'm lonesome and blue!
(dh)
In my heart I'm prayin',
To the world I'm sayin'
I'd love to call you my sweetheart!

(as)
I'd love to call you my, let me call you sweetheart,
I'm in, honestly I love you I do, yes I do!
(dh)
No you don't!
(as)
Yes I do!
And I cry for you in the daytime, any old time is the right time,
When I sleep I dream beautiful dreams of guess who, guess who?

I've always wanted a, let me call you sweetheart,
I'm in, that's why I'm lonesome and blue!
In my heart I'm praying,
To the world I'm saying
I'd love to call you my sweetheart!

(dh)
I've always wanted a sweetheart,
That's why I'm lonesome and blue!
(all)
In my heart I'm prayin',
To the world I'm sayin'
I'd love to call you my sweetheart!
