Think it over, what you’ve just said (baa-bop-baa)Think it over in your pretty, little head (baa-bop-baa)Are you sure that I’m not the one? (baa-bop-baa)Is your love real or only fun? (aaaah)
You think it over (ooooh)Yes, think it over (ooooh)A lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over and let me know (baa-bop-baa)Think it over, but don’t be slow (baa-bop-baa)Just remember all birds and bees (baa-bop-baa)Go by twos through life’s mysteries (aaaah)
You think it over (ooooh)Yes, think it over (ooooh)A lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over and think of me (baa-bop-baa)Think it over and you will see (baa-bop-baa)A happy day when you and I (baa-bop-baa)Think as one and kiss the blues goodbye (aaaah)
You think it over (ooooh)Yes, think it over (ooooh)A lonely heart grows cold and old
Think it over (over and over)Think it over (over and over)
