I dream about you all the time, yes I do,
And I can't sleep at night.
(Heaven only knows, mm-hmm, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
I dream about makin' you mine, yes I do,
And of holding you tight.
(Heaven only Knows), ((mm-hmm)), (ooo-ooo-ooo.)

I've never been sure 'bout a boy before,
But I want you to know,
(Heaven only knows, mm-hmm, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)
Givin' you my heart and my soul and my love,
'Cause I trust you so.
(Heaven only Knows), ((mm-hmm)), (ooo-ooo-ooo.)

((Heaven only knows)) that I want you, baby.
((Everytime I see you)) it drives me crazy.
((You're the only boy)) that my heart wants to know.
Oh, yeah.

((Tell me what you want)) and I'll do it for you.
((Baby, let me show you)) that I adore you.
((Baby, let me go)) everywhere you go.
Oh, yeah.

Never been sure 'bout a boy before,
But I want you to know.
(Heaven only Knows, mm-hmm, ooo-ooo-ooo.)
Givin' you my heart and my soul and my love,
'Cause I trust you so.
(Heaven only Knows, mm-hmm, ooo-ooo-ooo.)

1Personnel: Identical twins, Mary Anne & Marguerite "Marge" Ganser and
siblings, Mary & Elizabeth "Betty" Weiss1a, formed the original act. Mary
Weiss was the main, lead singer, Betty, however, took lead on "Maybe," and
a number of B-sides and album tracks, Marge Ganser took lead on "I'm Blue"
and Mary Ann Ganser took the lead on "Sophisticated Boom Boom."

1aBecause Betty was underage, her mother did not allow her to tour until
1966, when she became 18. As a result she often did not appear in photos,
and many fans believed the Shangri-Las were a trio. Few pictures show all 4
of the girls.

2Covered by: Les Black, Mary Weiss & Brad Wilson.
