Lyrics

Betcha By Golly, Wow

[Verse 1]

There's a spark of magic in your eyes

Candyland appears each time you smile (Ooh ooh ooh)

Never thought that fairy tales came true

But they come true

When I'm near you

[Pre-Chorus]

You're a genie in disguise (Ooh ooh ooh)

Full of wonder and surprise

And

[Chorus]

Betcha by golly, wow

You're the one that I've been waiting for forever

And ever will my love for you

Keep growing strong

Keep growing strong

[Verse 2]

If I could, I'd catch a falling star

To shine on you, so I'll know where you are (Ooh ooh ooh)

Order rainbows in your favorite shade

To show I love you

Thinking of you

[Pre-Chorus]

Write your name across the sky (Ooh ooh ooh)

Anything you ask, I'll try

'Cause

[Chorus]

Betcha by golly, wow

You're the one that I've been waiting for forever

And ever will my love for you

Keep growing strong

Keep growing strong

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Betcha by golly, wow

You're the one that I've been waiting for forever

And ever will my love for you

Keep growing strong

Keep growing strong

Betcha by golly, wow

You're the one that I've been waiting for forever

And ever will my love for you

Keep growing strong

Keep growing strong

[Outro]

Betcha by golly, wow

You're the one that I've been waiting for forever
