[Verse]

I stand so much upon my head
Things are all turned around
Looking up from the ground
Ready to make a bound
Now on the air I seem to tread
At love's magic sound
On my feet I stand instead
Joy at last I've found.
I feel tip-top
For I've done a big flip-flop.

[Burthen]

Head over heels
I'm really head over heels
And I seem way up in the Skies above,
It's wonderful
How lovely it feels
My head with happiness reels
I'm topsy turvy over you
All upside down it's true.
For now I'm just like any little girl
Head over heels in love.
