People Say

The Dixie Cups, in "People Say," describe the feeling that love will last forever, and that other people's opinions are easy to disregard.

People say it's just a summer romance
People say our love won't last for long
They're so sure we will part
But I know deep in my part
That they are wrong
     (backup singers: I don't care what the people say)

People say it's just the way the stars shine
And it really isn't love at all
But each time that we kiss
I just know we'll be like this
Summer, winter and fall...
     (backup singers: I don't care what the people say)

In the fade out, the background parts is:
"I don't care what the people say
I don't really care 'bout the people.
I don't care what the people say
I don't really care 'bout the people...."

How Do you Do It?

You give me a feeling in my heart
Like an arrow passing through it
'Spose that you think you're very smart
But won't you tell me how do you do it?

Gerry and the Pacemakers, 1960's
