Denise (Original)

That may be what Levenson wrote, but it's not what Randy and the Rainbows sang, either when they recorded it in 1963 or when they commemorated it in 2013. This is what I've noted from repeated listens:

Oh, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you

Denise, Denise, oh with your eyes so blue Denise, Denise, I've got a crush on you Denise, Denise, I'm so in love with you

Oh, when we walk It feels like paradise And when we talk It always feels so nice Denise, Denise, I'm so in love with you, oh

You're my queen, and I'm in heaven every time I look at you When you smile it's like a dream And I'm so lucky 'cause I found a girl like you

Oh, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you

Denise, Denise, oh won't you hold my thigh Denise, Denise, oh can we kiss goodnight Denise, Denise, I'm so in love with you, oh

Oh, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you, Denise, do-be-do I'm in love with you....

I always get emotional when I hear this song. In 1978, when I was seventeen, my older brother was playing it a lot for a while, and it was running through my mind at the moment I realized I was in love for the first time.
