It's De-Lovely

I feel a sudden urge to sing Tthe 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 walkin', 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"
