Lyrics of
It's De-lovely

I feel a sudden urge to sing
The kind of ditty that invokes the Spring
So, control your desire to curse
while I crucify the verse
This verse I've started seems to me
The "Tin Pan-tithesis" of melody
So to spare you all the pain,
I'll skip the darn thing and sing the refrain
Melody
The night is young, the skies are clear and if you want to go walkin', Dear
It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
I understand the reason why you're sentimental, 'cause so am I
It's de lightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
You can tell at a glance what a swell night this is for romance
You can hear Dear Mother Nature murmuring low, let yourself go
So please be sweet, my chickadee and when I kiss ya, just say to me
It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious
It's dilemma, it's de-limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely
You can tell at a glance what a swell night this is for romance
You can hear Dear Mother Nature murmuring low, let yourself go
So please be sweet, my chickadee and when I kiss ya, just say to me
It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious
It's dilemma, it's de-limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely
