Hit Parade of Love Lyrics

From what I have been hearing, dear, you've really got it made
Got a lot of fellers on your lover's hit parade
If I can't be your number one I don't know what I'll do
Gotta get my love up to the top, I'm so in love with you

On the hit parade of love I know I'll never stop
I've got a long, long way to climb before I reach the top
But if I do get there soon I'll really have it made
Then I'll know I'm number one on your lover's hit parade

Well, we get along, dear, like all good lovers should
Yet we could make a go of it, I know it'd turn out good
We could have so much fun, we'd really have it made
Then I'll know I'm number one on your lover's hit parade

On the hit parade of love I know I'll never stop
I've got a long, long way to climb before I reach the top
But if I do get there soon I'll really have it made
Then I know I'm number one on your lover's hit parade

Well, it's your heart I'm after, dear, 'cause you're so nice and fine
And another to replace you, dear, would sure be hard to find
So put your arms around me now and call me turtle dove
Then I know I'm number one on your hit parade of love

On the hit parade of love I know I'll never stop
I've got a long, long way to climb before I reach the top
But if I do get there soon I'll really have it made
Then I know I'm number one on your lover's hit parade
Then I know I'm number one on your lover's hit parade

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
