I Wanna Be In Love Again

(album: My Huckleberry Friend (Johnny Mercer Sings The Songs Of Johnny Mercer) - 1974)

I wanna be in love again
I wanna be in love again
I want to try to beat the odds
Of the gracious gods up above again

I want to know the thrills again
The fever and the chills again
The quiver of the lightning for
And the zillion porcupine quills again

I long to feel my temporals pound
And pulses raise again
As helpless as a fox caught in a chase again
Then feel that metamorphosis take place again
That wild explosion of bliss
Politely known as a kiss

I want to know the frights again
That a-panic in the night again
When you're prepared to end it all
Till a certain call comes through

I wanna be alive again
I wanna be in love again
But only if the love again
I love again is you

I wanna be alive again
I wanna be in love again
But only if the love again
I love again is you
