IT WAS A GOOD TIME
(Mike Curb / Mack David / Maurice Jarre)

Recorded by: 
Mike Curb; Liza Minnelli.


I now pronounce you for the rest of your life
I now pronounce you man and wife

It was a good time, it was the best time
It was a party, just to be near you
It was a good time, it was the best time
And we believed that it would last forever
We would stay together and share the laughter
With never ever a morning after
It was a good time, it was the best time
It seemed a short time, but such a good time

Since you're gone and won't be mine again
There are many stars that will not shine again
Except some time deep in my reverie
You return and then I remember when

It was a good time, it was the best time
It was a party, just to be near you
It was a good time, it was the best time
And we believed that it would last forever

Here we go 'round the mulberry bush
The mulberry bush, the mulberry bush
Here we go 'round the mulberry bush, early in the morning

Mama wakes up and she's alone
She's alone, she's alone
Mama wakes up and she's alone, early in the morning

... Falling down ... Lon ... My fair lady
Yes she looks a lot like him, yes she does, but, yes
My fair lady

Baby, baby Bunting, daddy's gone a-hunting
Daddy's gone!

... Dor-mei-vous, dor-mei-vous
Mama will stay near you, mama will be near you
Not your dad, that's too bad!

Good - bye - good - and I believed - ah-hah

Since you've gone and won't be mine again
There are many stars that will not shine again
Except some times deep in my reverie
You return and then I remember when

It - was - a - good - time, it was the best time
It was a party, just to be near you
It was a good time, it was the best time
It seemed a short time, but such a good time
A good... time...
