Oh, I never thought I'd fall
But now I hear the call
I'm getting sentimental over you
All the thoughtful little things you say and do
That thrill me through and through
I'm getting sentimental over you
I thought I was happy
I could live without love
Now I must admit that love is all I'm thinking off
Baby, won't you please be kind
And just make up your mind
That you'll be sweet and gentle
Be gentle with me
Because I'm sentimental over you

("Musical" Interlude)

Because I'm sentimental over you

Oh, I can't stand much more of this.
