Who sends me flowers for no reason at all? Who saves each card I've ever sent? Who remembers everything about the day we met? If you're wonderin' who, it's sentimental ol' you Sentimental ol' you, I love you just the way you are Sentimental ol' you, I need you like the night time needs the stars You're the kind of dreamer that dreams big enough for two An' whatever you do that way, don't change sentimental ol' you Who cries at the movies, thinkin' I don't see? An' who laughs the loudest at the old cartoons? Who complains that Christmas-time comes way too soon? If you're wonderin' who, it's sentimental old you Sentimental ol' you, I love you just the way you are Sentimental ol' you, I need you like the night time needs the stars You're the kind of dreamer that dreams big enough for two An' whatever you do that way, don't change sentimental ol' you An' whatever you do that way, don't change sentimental ol' you
