I KNOW ABOUT LOVE

from 1960 New York Musical "Do-Re-Me"
(Jule Styne (m) Adolph Green (l) Betty Comden (l) 1960)

as recorded by June Christy
1961


I know about love,
Yes all about love.
I've had numerous tries
With available guys,
I know about love!

I recite all the sonnets,
I sing all the songs 
That everyone's heard.
I know love's a word
That rhymes with above,
Act love!

In movies I've seen,
When love fills the screen,
Then the fireworks flare,
Violins fills the air,
The universe reels!

Love's a magic spell,
It's what makes music sell,
I know all about it,
All except how it feels!

For love's a magic spell,
It's what makes music sell,
I know all about it,
All except how it feels!
