|
I hear singing and there's no one there, |
|
I smell blossoms and the trees are bare, |
|
All day long I seem to walk on air, |
|
I wonder why, I wonder why ? |
|
I keep tossing in my sleep at night, |
|
And what's more I've lost my appetite, |
|
Stars that used to twinkle in the skies, |
|
Are twinkling in my eyes, |
|
I wonder why ? |
|
You don't need analyzin' |
|
It is not so surpisin' |
|
That you feel very strange but nice! |
|
Your heart goes pitter patter |
|
I know just what's the matter |
|
Because I've been there once or twice! |
|
Put your head on my shoulder |
|
You need someone who's older |
|
A rub-down with a velvet glove! |
|
There is nothing you can take |
|
To relieve that pleasant ache |
|
You're not sick, you're just in love! |
|
< repeat verse and chorus simultaneously > |
|
Now you know why! |
|
Now I know why! |
|
I'm just in love! |
