Lyrics
- Never really knew what love could do
Oh the silly things that you go through
You’re absentminded
You don’t know where you’re at
At times you find you’re even petting the cat
I should know for ask me did I fall
Yes, and now I’m going through it all
Chorus:
When you look in her eyes
And you sigh little sighs
It’s a million to one you’re in love
When you go for a walk
And you talk baby talk
It’s a million to one you’re in love
When you tell her the wonderful things
That you’ve done
Make her believe she is second to none
And you promise her everything
Under the sun
It’s a million to one you’re in love
- When you feel that funny feeling start
Bumpin’ and a-jumpin’ round your heart
Don’t go and see a doctor, take it from me
Just save your money ’cause there’s no remedy
There is nothing he can really do
It’s got me and now it’s got you, too
Chorus:
When you’re lookin’ at rings
Do the silliest things
It’s a million to one you’re in love
When your appetite’s gone
And you wake up at dawn
It’s a million to one you’re in love
When you call unexpectedly up at her flat
Some other feller is takin’ his hat
She says he’s just my cousin
And you fall for that
It’s a million to one you’re in love
