Little catholic girl is fallin' in love

A face on a page, a gift from above



She should've known better than to give her heart

She should've known better than to ever part without me, without me



I gave her everything that I ever owned

I think she understood it but she never spoke



She shouldn't oughta try to be that way

She shouldn't have to go there every day without me, without me



Now listen to us good and listen well

Listen to the song and everything we tell



We should've known better than to give her away

We should've known better to this very day, without me, without me



Listen, [show it all], all you gotta do

Say the right words and I'll be coming through

Hold you in my arms and take you right away



Now she's turned away to another land

We never understood it why she gave her hand



She shouldn't oughta promise, 'cos it's just pretend

I know she doesn't mean it and she'll leave again without me, without me

Without me, without me
