IT DOESN'T TAKE VERY LONG
(S Feller / K Goodrich)

as recorded by Andy Williams
1957


It doesn't take very long to fall in love,
It doesn't take very long to fall in love.
How long does it take to find bliss?
How long does it take for a kiss?
Well that's how long that it takes to fall in love!

It doesn't take very long to hear love bells ring,
It doesn't take very long to get your heart to sing.
Just hold me close to your heart,
Oh baby, nothing can tear us apart!
It doesn't take very long to fall in love!

Now you're free and foolish with a happy heart,
Then some sweet gal comes and upsets your apple cart!

And then you know it doesn't take very long to fall in love,
It doesn't take very long to fall in love.
When it happens you're bound to show it,
And it will happen before you know it!
It doesn't take very long to fall in love!

Now you're free and foolish with a happy heart,
Then some sweet gal comes and upsets your apple cart!

And then you know it doesn't take very long to fall in love,
It doesn't take very long to fall in love.
When it happens you're bound to show it,
And it will happen before you know it!
It doesn't take very long,
It doesn't take very long,
It doesn't take very long to fall in love!
