ALMOST LIKE BEING IN LOVE
Brigadoon : The Musical (1947)
(Alan Jay Lerner / Frederick Loewe)

Frank Sinatra - 1947
Nat "King Cole"


What a day this has been
What a rare mood I'm in
Why, it's almost like being in love

There's a smile on my face
For the whole human race
Why, it's almost like being in love

All the music of life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing for me 
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peal
I would swear I was falling
I could swear I was falling
It's almost like being in love

Maybe the sun gave me the power,
For I could swim Loch Lomond and be home in half an hour!
Maybe the air gave me the drive,
For I'm all aglow and alive!


What a day this has been!
What a rare mood I'm in!
Why, it's almost like bein' in love!
There's a smile on my face
For the whole human race,
Why, it's almost like bein' in love!

All the music of life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringin' for me,
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peal,
I would swear I was fallin',
I could swear I was fallin',
It's almost like bein' in love!

When we walked up the brae,
Not a word did we say,
It was -
And her arms linked in mine
Made the world kind of fine,
It was -

Why, it's almost like bein' in love!

Why, it's almost like bein' in love!

Why, it's almost like bein' in love!

Life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringin' for me,
And from the way that I feel
When that bell starts to peal,
I would swear I was fallin',
I could swear I was fallin',
It's almost like bein' in love!
