Lyrics

  1. I’m all topsy-turvy and that’s a certain sign
    That either heat’s affecting me
    Or someone’s on my mind
    Honest, I’m no kidder, I don’t thrill easily
    But here’s what I consider the greatest thrill to me

Chorus
To be in love is simply wonderful
To be in love, espesh’lly with you
To hold your hand is simply marvellous
I’d say it’s grand, espesh’lly with you
Every smile adds a year to my life, dear
Your kiss, think of what one could do
To be in love, oh, ain’t it just too bad
To be in love, espesh’lly with you

  1. Each time I’m beside you, say, I’m beside myself
    My heart keeps jumping up and down
    Just like a woodland elf
    I’ve had sweet sensations, but none like this, you see
    It’s more than fascination that has the best of me
