Verse 2:
Girl, you're wrong to believe what was said
For you see nothing could ever be that bad
Though the talk is now all over town
Darling, you know I'd never put you down
True, her and me were at the party as guests
There's nothing else to say about whom I love best
[repeat chorus]
[repeat intro to fade]
(whoa, it's all right)
(whoa, it's all right)
