do re mi, do re mi
that amazing letter
you gave me
wrote in musical notes
totally unreadable letter
do re mi is my trouble
but
your letters are
always the same to me
like "I LOVE YOU" you write to me
To know without reading is do re mi
words of love are always conventional
"I am your slave of love"
To know without reading is do re mi
do re mi, do re mi
that amazing letter
you gave me
wrote in musical notes
totally unreadable
this letter is my trouble
yes
your letters are
always the same to me
like "Do you want to go on a date with me?"
"How about a date next Saturday?"
do re mi, do re mi
that amazing letter
you gave me
wrote in musical notes
but I'll go on a date with you
Saturday is my day off, too
do re mi, do re mi
do re mi fa so la ti
