Look Before You Leap

You got to look before you leap
There's heartaches around every corner
You got to look before you leap
There's heartaches around every corner

Well, one fine day I met this girl and she was, oh, so fine
Well, she said "Boy, I'm gonna love, love, love you
A-for a long, long time"
Now I said, "A-wait, huh, wait, oh, wait, whoa wait"

You got to look before you leap
There's heartaches around every corner
You got to look before you leap
There's heartaches around every corner

Well, she said, "Right, I'm gonna prove you're wrong
Just you wait and see
Now take my hand and look into my eyes
And you will disagree
But I said "Now wait, huh, wait, oh, wait, yes, wait"

You got to look before you leap
There's heartaches around every corner
You got to look before you leap
There's heartaches around every corner

Now that she has seen the light and it was understood
'Cause the very next day she walked away
With someone else like I knew she would
So I said, "Now look, huh, look, oh, look, whoa, look"

You got to look before you leap, believe me, baby
There's heartaches around every corner
You got to look before you leap, I'm tellin' you now
There's heartaches around every corner

So look, look, look before you leap
