Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

In Verona, my late cousin Romeo
Was three times as stupid as my Dromio
For he fell in love and then he died of it
Poor half-wit!

Chorus
This can’t be love, because I feel so well
No sobs, no sorrows, no sighs
This can’t be love, I get no dizzy spells
My head is not in the skies
My heart does not stand still
Just hear it beat
This is too sweet to be love
This can’t be love, because I feel so well
But still, I love to look in your eyes
