I Can't Replace My Old Love

(album: War & Peace - 1970)

(No, no, no, no, no, no)
No, no, no, no, no, no
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
No, no, no

I can't replace my old love, baby
For a love that's so new
Listen, girl (No, no)

Though your loving pleases me
You can't compare with her, girl
Now and then I might look your way
But your face is just a blur, girl

'Cause the memory of my first love
You know it hides you from my view

Oh oh, and I can't replace my old love, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
For a love that's so new
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
You know I can't replace my old love, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
For a love that's so new
Listen girl (New)

Now, I don't mean to hurt you, baby (Doodoo)
'Cause I know you really care, now (Doodoo)
But loving must be a pleasure (Doodoo)
Two people must truly share, girl

And the memory of my first love
It hides you from view, listen baby

I can't replace my old love, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
For a love that's so new
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Listen girl, you know I can't replace my old love, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
For a love that's so new, oh oh
(No, no, no, no, no, no)

Ha-ha, yeah
(Doo-doo doo
Doo doo
Do-do-dodo-doo doo do)
Oh, baby, baby
(Doo-doo doo
Doo doo
Do-do-dodo-doo doo do)
The right is alright
(Doo-doo doo
Doo doo
Do-do-dodo-doo doo do)
Baby, baby

The door to my heart is locked, girl (Doodoo)
And her loving, it holds the key, huh (Doodoo)
But rather than hurt you, darling, listen (Doodoo)
I'd be a man and I'd set you free

Because the memory of my first love
You know it hides you from my view

Oh oh, and I can't replace my old love, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
For a love that's so new
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Listen darling, I can't replace my old love, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
For a love that's so new, I just can't replace it, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no, new)

I just can't replace it, baby
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Can't replace my old love
(No, no, no, no, no, no, new)
No, no, no, no, no
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Just can't replace my love
(No, no, no, no, no, no, new)
Oh, baby

(Ah, ah, yeah)
Ha, ha, yeah
(Ah, ah, oh yeah)
Ha, ha, woah yeah
(Ha, ha, yeah)
Woo!

I know that I miss you, baby
(Ah, oh yeah)
And I might want you by my side, now
But the girl that I had before you
She's always been mine, oh mine
And I just can't replace her
I can't replace her love

I just can't replace her
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
I can't replace her love
(No, no, no, no, no, no, new)
Don't you hear me saying that I can't
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
I can't replace her love
(No, no, no, no, no, no, new)

Oh oh, can't replace her
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
Can't replace her

(Ah, ah, yeah)
A-ha, yeah
(Ah, ah, oh yeah)
A-ha, oh yeah
(Ha, ha, yeah)
Woo!

In case you didn't understand me, hmm
Just let me tell you one more time, girl
(Yeah ah, oh yeah)
You know the girl that I had before you, huh
She completely blew my mind
And I can't replace her, can't replace her
I just can't replace her, oh baby

Can't replace her
Can't replace her, can't replace her
Can't replace her, can't replace her
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
