OUT OF BREATH
(George Weiss / Bennie Benjamin / Joseph Meyer)
as recorded by Gloria De Haven
with The Guy Lombardo Trio
and Guy Lombardo & his Royal Canadians
1951 New York
Out of breath,
Out of breath,
After one little kiss!
Who'd have thought
I'd be caught
With a feeling like this!
I'm spinning in the happiest haze,
And dancing in the danciest days!
Out of sight,
Out of sight,
Never be out of sight!
In my arms,
In my arms,
Cuddle up every night!
My heart is palpitatin' so much it'll break,
You touch me, and honey I quiver and quake!
And ever since we're datin', I shiver and shake!
Wanna sigh "I love you!",
Though I try, no can do!
Out of breath, out of breath over you!
Out of breath,
Out of breath,
After one little kiss!
Who'd have thought
I'd be caught
With a feeling like this!
I'm spinning in the happiest haze, (do-do-do-do-do-do)
And dancing in the danciest days! (do-do)
Out o' sight,
Out o' sight,
Never be out o' sight!
In my arms,
In my arms,
Cuddle up every night!
My heart is palpitatin' so much it'll break,
You touch me, and honey I quiver and quake!
And ever since we're datin', I shiver and shake!
Wanna sigh (wanna sigh) "I love you!", (I love you)
Though I try (though I try), no can do! (no can do)
Out of breath (out of breath), out of breath (out of breath) over you,
Out of breath, out of breath over you,
Out of breath, out of breath over you!
