I went around with my own little croud
The usual laughs, not often but loud
And in the world that I knew
I didn't know about you
Chasing after the ring on the merry-go-round
Just taking my fun where it could be found
And yet what else could I do
I didn't know about you
Darling, now I know 
I had the loneliest yesterday
Ev'ry day
In your arms I know for once in my life
I'm living
Had a good time ev'ry time I went out
Romance was the thing I kidded about
How could I know about love
I didn't know about you
