Lyricist: VOLMAN, MARK / BARBATA, JOHN / NICHOL, AL / PONS, JIM / KAYLAN, HOWARD Composer: VOLMAN, MARK / BARBATA, JOHN / NICHOL, AL / PONS, JIM / KAYLAN, HOWARD
You got a thing about you
I just can't live without you
I really want you, Elenore, near me
Your looks intoxicate me
Even though your folks hate me
There's no one like you, Elenore, really
Elenore, gee I think you're swell
And you really do me well
You're my pride and joy, et cetera
Elenore, can I take the time
To ask you to speak your mind
Tell me that you love me better
I really think you're groovy
Let's go out to a movie
What do you say, now, Elenore, can we?
They'll turn the lights way down low
Maybe we won't watch the show
I think I love you, Elenore, love me
Elenore, gee I think you're swell
And you really do me well
You're my pride and joy, et cetera
Elenore, can I take the time
To ask you to speak your mind
Tell me that you love me better
Elenore, gee I think you're swell, ah, ah (x2) Ah
