Everybody's saying, seeing things
without knowing that life brings a change
and they've been checking all the time
my friends say i'm love sick cause i...
all i keep thinking about is her in my arms
(got to see what love is all about)
and i won't be the same until she is mine
and my friends keep telling me to

you got to cool it now
you got to cool it now
ooooooh watch out
you're gonna loose control
cool it now
you got to slow it down
slow it down...
you're gonna fall in love

everyday i walk her home from school
and she tells me how she really feels
and there's no doubt in my mind
that this girl is one of a kind
cause all i keep thinking about is her in my arms
and i won't feel the same until she is mine
you got to cool it now
you got to cool it now
ooooooh watch out
you're gonna loose control
cool it now
you got to slow it down
slow it down...
you're gonna fall in love
all i keep thinking about is her in my arms
(got to see what love is all about)
and i'll never be the same until you are mine
and my friends keep telling me..
when ya got a girl who takes her time
you must slow the pace you can't mess with her mind
if she feels the same she'll letcha know
just prepare yourself or be ready to go
and i hope this message stays in your mind
cause you almost lost a girl who is right on time
there's one more thing that ya got to know
just cool it down and stay in control

you got to cool it now
you got to cool it now
ooooooh watch out
you're gonna loose control
cool it now
you got to slow it down
slow it down...
you're gonna fall in love
all i keep thinking about is her in my arms
(got to see what love is all about)
and i'll never be the same until you are mine
and my friends keep telling me..

cool it now
you got to slow it down
slow it down...
