WHY DO I LOVE YOU SO
Clifford Rhodes
Johnny Tillotson - 1961
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-hooh)
My darlin', I have often thought of things we used to do
And now I sit and wonder why you've gone and left me blue
You said you'd never leave, me you said you'd never go
But, oh, my darlin', why do I love you so
Oh, my darlin', why do I love you so
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-hooh)
Is it because you stroked my hair when you were by my side
Or is it because of the tears you cried when your little puppy died
You said you'd never leave me, you said you'd never go
But, oh, my darlin', why do I love you so
Oh, my darlin', why do I love you so
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-hooh)
