Love Rules
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ev'ry day you pass her in the hall
You just pretend that you don't see her at all
You wanna tell her how much you care
You wanna call her but you just don't dare
Love rules, ooo love rules
Out in the parking lot with all the guys
Don't ever let 'em see the tears in your eyes
She's got a date tonight and it ain't you
So you go out there and you get one too
Love rules, ooo love rules
Love rules, yeah love rules
You wish you didn't have so much to feel
It's much too scary and it's all too real
All your friends are out havin' fun
Sometimes you think that you're the only one
That love rules, ooo love rules
While everybody's out makin' time
You can't help thinkin' you're the last in line
She's the finest thing you've ever seen
You wrap your arms around her in your dreams
When she smiles it brings you to your knees
You wanna tell her but you always freeze
She's in the back seat but you're much too shy
You'd give the world to be an older guy
Love rules, ooo love rules
Love rules, yeah love still rules
Love rules, ooo love rules
Love rules, love rules love rules
Love rules
