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
Oh, 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'll 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"
Mmm, 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
Oh, 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 telling you, now)
There's heartaches around every
Corner
A-so look
Mmm, look
A-look
Before you leap
