Hopelessly Devoted To You

Mariah Carey · Other Songs - Mariah Carey

Mariah:

I loved this song when I was little,

I won a talent contest singing this song,

and I believe it was a little something like this:



Guess mine is not the first heart broken

My eyes are not the first to cry

I'm not the first to know there's

Just no getting over you



Ladies and gentleman, Olivia Newton John!



Olivia:

You know I'm just a fool who's willing

To sit around and wait for you

both:

(But) baby can't you see there's nothing else for me to do

I'm hopelessly devoted to you



But now there's no where to hide

Since you pushed my love aside

I'm outta my head hopelessly devoted to you

Hopelessly devoted to you (you)

Hopelessly devoted to you

Whoo



Mariah:

Olivia Newton John!
