Identify this early 60s English pop song

"If I say that I love you, and you know it's true" - identify this early 60s English pop song

I watched the 1963 documentary 7 up, about 7-year-olds in England. At the end, there's a party, with a song playing in the background, that I'd like to identify. Someone else has asked the same question at AllExperts, but didn't get an answer.

From that page:
"What I can make out of the lyrics is 'If I say that I love you, and you know it's true, if you say that you'd leave me, what would I do? (chorus) I'll get you back, if you let me, I'd change your mind, wait and see, I'll always follow you, tell me that you are true. Believe me, that's what I'd do, what I'd do, what I'd do.' The song must have come out in 62 or 63, it has a Mersey-beat sound to it".

Any ideas?
