THIS BUSINESS OF LOVE
>From the film "Meet The Boyfriend" (1937)
(Harry Tobias / Roy Ingraham)


Carol Hughes (Film Soundtrack) - 1937





What is it that takes you and makes you a slave
What is it that won't let your poor heart behave
What's the mysterious feeling
Why does it make you rave

It's the funniest little thing, this business of love
Cute and cunningest little thing, this business of love
It lifts you up to the ceiling, there's nothing bright above it
Though at times it makes you so unhappy
Till you learn to love it

It's the busiest little thing, this business of love
Daft and dizziest little thing, this business of love
You may think you've got the laugh on it
But you don't know the half of it
This grand, this sweet, romantic business of love

(Instrumental Break)

And although you may think you're immune
It soon will make you change your tune
This grand, this sweet, romantic business of love
