Song Lyrics

Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh

You didn't have to be so nice
I would have loved you anyway
If you had just looked once or twice
And gone upon your quiet way

Today I said the time was right for me to follow you
I believed, I hoped I'd find you in a day or two
And it's true

You came upon a quiet day (ooh)
You simply seemed to take your place
I knew that it would be that way
The minute that I saw your face

And when we've had a few more days (a few more days)
I wonder if I'll get to say, baby
You didn't have to be so nice (be so nice)
I would have loved you anyway

Today the time was right to follow you (today I said the time was right for me to follow you, follow you)
I knew I'd find you in a day or two (I knew I'd find you in a day or two)
And it's true

I knew, I knew, I knew that I would fall for you
I knew, I knew (I knew, I knew) (I would look at you)
I knew that I would fall for you (that I would fall for you) (I would look and fall in love)
I knew, I knew, I knew that I would fall for you (one look, baby, one look and I fall in love with you)
I knew, I knew (I knew, I knew) (I knew that I could fall for you)
I knew, I knew, I knew, I'd fall in love with you
