I need your love so badly, I love you oh so madly

But I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

I thought at last I'd found you but other loves surround you

And I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

If you'd surrender just for a tender kiss or two

You might discover that I'm the lover meant for you

And I'd be true but what's the good of scheming

I'm dreaming for I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you

'cuz I don't stand a ghost of a chance with you
