I'm In Love For The Very First Time

(الألبوم: The Shadow Of Your Smile - 1966)

I often used to wonder
What the fuss was all about
When they told me how exciting love can be
And I used to smile politely
Though I hadn't any doubt
It was something that would never bother me
Then all at once it happened
Like a bolt out of the blue
And it hit me and knocked me nearly flat
And that was that

Beat the drum
Bang the gong
Let the golden wedding bells chime
My heart's a-flutter
I'm walking on air
I'm in love for the very first time
Turn me loose
Set me free
I've no use for reason or rhyme
I'm hazy, crazy, but what do I care?
I'm in love for the very first time

I thought that I was freer than the birdie in the sky
Then you passed by and wham! before I knew it
I was really going through it
Like a fish on a hook
With that dreamy, far away look
I'm as mad as a hatter
But what does it matter
Let me live and love and laugh and be merry
I'm in love for the very first time

And what a lovely feeling
Sort of floating to the ceiling
Like a bubble or a toy balloon
And it's a lot of fun
When the day is done
And you're sitting under the moon
And isn't it surprising
That your temperature keeps rising
Though the weather may be cold and gray
And though the sun has gone
No matter what goes on
It's a lovely, lovely day

Like a fish on a hook
With that dreamy, far away look
I'm as mad as a hatter
But what does it matter
Let me live and love and laugh and be merry
I'm in love
I'm in love
For the very, very first time
I'm in love!
