(I Wonder Why) You're Just in Love (From "Call Me Madam") - Perry Como

I hear singing and there’s no one there

I smell blossoms and the trees are bare

All day long I seem to walk on air

I wonder why, I wonder why?

I keep tossing in my sleep at night

And what’s more I’ve lost my appetite

Stars that used to twinkle in the skies

Are twinkling in my eyes

I wonder why?

You don’t need analyzin'

It is not so surpisin'

That you feel very strange but nice!

Your heart goes pitter patter

I know just what’s the matter

Because I’ve been there once or twice!

Put your head on my shoulder

You need someone who’s older

A rub-down with a velvet glove!

There is nothing you can take

To relieve that pleasant ache

You’re not sick, you’re just in love!

Repeat verse and chorus simultaneously

Now you know why!

Now I know why!

I’m just in love!

~ from the 1950 Broadway musical «Call Me Madam»
