Lyrics
My heart has a problem
Something to decide
It’s not a simple problem
In whom shall I confide
Just like Shakespear’s Hamlet
I’m in a state of doubt
Refrain:
To be or not to be in love
It isn’t so hot to be in love
It is thrilling, I know it
But how much is it worth?
It takes you up to heaven
Throws you right back to earth
Oh, love, you’ve got me up a tree
The question’s to be or not to be
Oh, I wish I didn’t have to choose
‘Cause even if I win, I lose
To be or not to be
I wish I knew what to be
To be or not to be in love
