[English]

There's a boy I know, he's the one I dream of

Looks into my eyes, takes me to the clouds above, mmm-hmm

Ooh, I lose control, can't seem to get enough, uh-huh

When I wake from dreaming, tell me is it really love?

Ooh, how will I know? (Don't trust your feelings)

How will I know?

How will I know? (Love can be deceiving)

How will I know?

How will I know if he really loves me?

I say a prayer with every heartbeat

I fall in love whenever we meet

I'm asking you what you know about these things

How will I know if he's thinking of me?

I try to phone, but I'm too shy (Can't speak)

Falling in love is so bittersweet

This love is strong, why do I feel weak?

Oh, wake me, I'm shaking, wish I had you near me now, uh-huh

Said there's no mistaking, what I feel is really love

Ooh, tell me

How will I know? (Don't trust your feelings)

How will I know?

How will I know? (Love can be deceiving)

How will I know?

How will I know if he really loves me?

I say a prayer with every heartbeat

I fall in love whenever we meet

I'm asking you what you know about these things

How will I know if he's thinking of me?

I try to phone, but I'm too shy (Can't speak)

Falling in love is so bittersweet

This love is strong, why do I feel weak?

If he loves me

If he loves me not, mm

If he loves me

Ooh, if he loves me not

Hey, if he loves me

If he loves me not

Oh, how will I know?

Ooh, how will I know?

How will I know?

Hey, how will I know?

Hey-hey, hey-hey

How will I know if he really loves me?

I say a prayer with every heartbeat

I fall in love whenever we meet

I'm asking you what you know about these things

How will I know if he's thinking of me?

I try to phone, but I'm too shy (Can't speak)

Falling in love is so bittersweet

This love is strong, why do I feel weak?

How will I know? (How will I know?)

How will I know?

How will I know? (I say a prayer)

How will I know?

Ooh, how will I know? (I fall in love)

How will I love, hey, how will I know? (I'm asking you)

How will I? How will I?
