It's De-Lovely
(专辑: The Complete Ella Fitzgerald Song Books - 1994)
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 The
night is young, the
skies are clear And if you want to go walking, 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 delightful, 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"
