You simply can't forget her

The moment you have met her, your heart will never ever be the same

Tina, Tina, nobody else but Tina, that's the little lady's name

 

And once you've gone and kissed her

Give up, you can't resist her, your thoughts will wear her picture like a frame

Tina, Tina, nobody quite like Tina, that's the little lady's name

 

She'll merely smile, and in a twinkling

You'll swear that smile contains a star

Before that smile, you had no inkling

How much in love you really are

 

Let others look for angels

I have no time for angels, I've found someone more than just divine

Tina, Tina, no sir, you can't have Tina

Tina is mine, all mine

Tina is mine, all mine
