July 8th 1940
I never know if the stars are blinkin',
I never know if the moon is sinkin',
I've got some wonderful thoughts I'm thinkin'
When we're out on a midnight stroll!
I love the way that you talk so pleasing,
I love the way your hand is squeezing,
I love your lips that are appetising
When we're out on a midnight stroll!
We kiss,
I see the treetops a-bouncin' around,
We kiss,
And things look hazy, crazy!
I only know that I love each minute,
I've got a arm and you fit right in it,
I've got a heart and oh babe, you win it
A-when we're out on a midnight stroll!
I've got some wonderful thoughts I'm thinkin'
Oh when we're out on a midnight stroll!
I love your lips and you're appetising
When we're out on a midnight stroll!
We kiss,
I see the treetops a-bouncin' around,
We kiss,
And things look hazy crazy, hazy crazy, ho-ho baby!
I only know that I love each minute,
I've got an arm and you fit right in it,
I've got a heart and oh babe, you win it
A-when we're out on a midnight stroll,
On a midnight stroll!
