I'd like to find the words
to write a song for you
but nowadays I guess old-fashioned words
won't do for to call you awfully grand.
Today would seem unreal
although that is
exactly how I feel.
I couldn't say of you that you are
simply nice
that your love's
taken me
right up to paradise
when you hold me in your arms.
The feeling is so
what can I
say define?
Tall,
dark and handsome is a very old cliche
but that's just what you are.
So what,
darling what else can I say
in modern parlance?
Awesome
sounds as if it's right
and maybe I could even say
you're out of sight
by the phrase that doesn't date
because it's always true
I love you, yes I do.
Tall,
dark and handsome is a very old cliche but that's just what you are.
So what,
darling what else can I say?
I could say you're right on but would that be
uncool if I said you're far out?
Would that make me a fool?
By the phrase that doesn't date
because it's always true
I love you, yes I do.
I love you, yes I do.
I
love you,
yes I do.
Oh baby you're wicked.
I love you, yes I do.
Oh baby you're wicked.
