Verse:
First you bring me joy, then bring me sorrow,
You're just here today, and gone tomorrow.
Why can't I have you for my own.
Why must I always be alone.
 
Chorus:
I ''wanna" go where you go,  Do what you do,
Love when you love,  Then I'll be happy.
I ''wanna" sigh when you sigh,  Cry when you cry,
Smile when you smile,  Then I'll be happy.
If you go North or South,  If you go East or West,
I'll follow you sweetheart,  And share your little love nest.
I ''wanna" go where you go,  Do what you do,
Love when you love,  Then I'll be happy.
