Verse:
M: People, they talk about their new attitude,
M: Taking their time or setting the mood.
M: They just ask for their names and hold hands in the park.
M: They toss out their numbers, then they dance in the dark.
M: But I'll never get over to you.
Verse:
F: He asks her to dinner and remembers a rose.
F: They talk over drinks to then see how it goes.
F: A long kiss at the door with a promise to phone.
F: She goes where he is and makes sure she's alone.
F: But I'll never get over to you.
Bridge:
F: Why does everyone like me, but I crumble when he might be the one?
M: Why do all gals want marriage, but I stumble, then think it's already done?
M: An auto and a dime.
F: A phone call and on time.
M: A clergy and a church.
F: A wedding dress and hair.
M/F: But how did they get to there?
Verse:
M/F: They all make it look easy, like they've done it before.
M/F: They slow dance and mingle any time they're looking for more.
M/F: The whole town's out on the town to see who they will see.
M/F: Looks like love's for everybody -- everybody, but me!
M/F: I'll never get over to you.
Outro:
M/F: The world's full of married people.
M/F: The world's full of married people.
M/F: It seems a sure victory, with love all around.
M/F: How do you meet the love you have found?
M/F: I'll never get over to you.
