Well it's a waste of time

Cause you and I will never rhyme

But who can blame us if we try

And I can't stay mad reading your letters

Your hand-writing's so bad

But your love is so good

How do I know how do I know

You really care

How do I know how do I know

You're really there

How do I know

When to stay and when to go

When I feel so

Cause I'm a Scarborough girl

Wearing my high-heels and my $5 pearls

In an imitation world

And I can't have him

Cause he's down in L A and that's too far to swim

So you'll just have to stand in

How do I know how do I know

You really care

How do I know how do I know

You're really there

How do I know

When to stay and when to go

When I feel so

I guess we're all just the same

Guarding the fire from the rain

By holding our hands in the flame

How do I know how do I know

You really care

How do I know how do I know

You're really there

How do I know

When to stay and when to go

When I feel so

How do I know how do I know You really care How do I know how do I know You're really there How do I know When to stay and when to go When I feel so
