She said, "I love you boy, I love you so" She said, "I love you baby oh, oh, oh, oh, oh" She said, "I love you more than words can say" She said, "I love you ba-ay-ay-ay-ay-by" So I said, "What you're sayin', girl, it can't be right How can you be in love with me? We only just met tonight" So she said, "Boy, I loved you from the start When I first heard 'Love Goes Down' Somethin' started burnin' in my heart" I said, "Stop this crazy talk Leave right now and close the door" She said, "But I love you boy, I love you so" She said, "I love you baby oh, oh, oh, oh, oh" She said, "I love you more than words can say" She said, "I love you ba-ay-ay-ay-ay-by", yes, she did So now I'm up in the courts, pleadin' my case from the witness box Tellin' the judge and the jury the same thing that I said to the cops On the day that I got arrested, I'm innocent, I protested She just feels rejected, had her heart broke by someone she's obsessed with 'Cause she likes the sound of my music Which makes her a fan of my music That's why 'Love Goes Down' makes her lose it 'Cause she can't separate the man from the music And I'm sayin' all this in the stand While my girl cries tears from the gallery This has got bigger than I ever could've planned Like that song by The Zutons "Valerie" So the jury don't look like they're buyin' it This is makin' me nervous Arms crossed, screw faced, like I'm tryin' it Their eyes fixed on me like I'm murderous They wanna lock me up, and throw away the key They wanna send me down, even though I told 'em she She said, "I love you boy, I love you so" She said, "I love you baby, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh" (yes, you did) She said, "I love you more than words can say" She said, "I love you ba-ay-ay-ay-ay-by" So I said, "Then why the hell you gotta treat me this way? You don't know what love is You wouldn't do this if you did, no, no-no-no", mmm
