Jackson 5 Darling Dear lyrics

The game of love is such a beautiful game
If you've got time, little girl, I'd like to explain
All the do's and don'ts, all the wills and won'ts
So lend an ear, darling dear, sweet darling dear

Do be sincere and true love will appear
Don't be shy or love will pass you by
If you will, my heart you may steal
If you don't, the game of love you lose alone

Darling dear, do be sincere and true love will appear
Don't be shy or love will pass you by
If you will, my heart you may steal
If you don't, the game of love you lose alone


First, first I'll place my arms so gently around you
Then, then whisper darling I'm so glad I found you
Then your lips unwind, a simple little touch wouldn't mind
A kiss will stay, oh darling dear

Sweet darling, darling, darling dear, yeah
Sweet darling dear, darling dear
Sweet darling dear, sweet darling dear
Oh, darling dear
