Lyrics
- Don’t you worry dear, banish every fear
No one else has got a chance
When the lights are low, no one stands a show
In the game of sweet romance
Chorus:
When someone gets what I’ve got in my heart
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
When someone gets all the love that I’ve got
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
Oh, honey, isn’t it funny
Isn’t it funny what love can do
Out of a million, out of a billion
I’ve chosen you
When someone gets what I’ve got in my heart
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
- You could never stand live that’s second hand
Don’t you want your love brand new?
New love is the best, it can stand the test
Once again I promise you
Chorus:
When someone gets what I’ve got in my heart
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
When someone gets all the love that I’ve got
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
Oh, honey, coulda had Garbo
Coulda had Swanson, and Deitrich, too
Didn’t want Garbo, didn’t want Dietrich
Just wanted you
When someone gets what I’ve got in my heart
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
Chorus:
When someone gets what I’ve got in my heart
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
When someone gets all the love that I’ve got
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
Oh, honey, coulda had Vallee
Coulda had Crosby, and Downey, too
Didn’t want Vallee, didn’t want Crosby
Just wanted you
When someone gets what I’ve got in my heart
It’s gonna be you, it’s gonna be you
