Lyrics
And they called it puppy loveOh, I guess they’ll never knowHow a young heart really feelsAnd why I love her soAnd they called it puppy loveJust because we’re in our teensTell them all, please tell them it isn’t fairTo take away my only dreamI cry each night my tears for youMy tears are all in vainI’ll hope and I’ll pray that maybe somedayYou’ll be back in my arms once againSomeone, help me, help me, help me pleaseIs the answer up aboveHow can I, oh how can I tell themThis is not a puppy loveSomeone, help me, help me, help me pleaseIs the answer up aboveHow can I, oh how can I tell themThis is not a puppy loveThis is not a puppy loveThis is not a puppy love
