I've got to tell you

girl you're in danger

No one can save you now

You're going to be mine somehow

You didn't know me

But to me you're no stranger

Saw you each day every week

I was too shy to speak

I loved you long ago

I loved you even though

You never looked my way

But now I've got to say..

Oh Carol, gotta make you mine

Carol, it'll work out fine

I know it's love, I know it's love for real

I know it's love, I know the way I feel

Carol, you're my dream come true

Carol, when I look at you

Carol, say you'll never go

Carol, now I need you so

Carol when I hold you tight

I don't want to say goodnight

Can't you feel it

It's all around you

Reach out and take it all

don't be afraid to fall

Don't want to lose you

now that I've found you

I'll always be around

I'll never let you down

I loved you long ago

I loved you even though

You never looked my way

But now I've got to say..

[CHORUS]

Carol when I hold you tight

I don't want to say goodnight

[CHORUS to fade]
