I'M NOT IN LOVE
Harold Purcell / Bernard

as rec by Bob Dale w Oscar Rabin & his Band  1947


I'm not in love,
So it must be the music,
I'm not in love,
Blame it onto the tune.
If in my eys
There appears to be starlight,
Don't look too hard,
It's a trick of the moon!

I've been in love
And I've learned all the answers,
I've been in love,
But the thrill doesn't thrill me the same!
Don't let it spoil all your fun,
Tonight has scarceky begun,
Jus pretend it's a game!

Let's pretend
That there is magic in a kiss,
That each caress
Is happiness
We mustn't miss!
We're holding heaven in our arms,
And, while we dance,
Play at bromance,
Music hath charms!

I'm not in love,
But I love this collusion,
So let's pretend
Till the end
Brings the dawn up above.
Though we're together tonight,
Lost in a dream of delight,
I'm not in love,
I'm not in love,
I'm not in love.

Though we're together tonight,
Lost in a dream of delight,
I'm not in love,
I'm not in love,
I'm not in love.
