PEOPLE WHO ARE BORN IN MAY
(Earl Brent)

as recorded by Julie London
with The Pete King Orchestra
1956


People who are born in May
Dress their hearts in Sunday clothes.
Though they're sometimes burned,
They're unconcerned,
Their love just grows and grows!

People who are born in May,
I've heard tell, should always try
To search around,
Until they've found
Someone born in July.

Strange how a distant star
Controls our destiny,
And wonderful when it's happening
To people like you and me!

The people who are born in May
Need the folks born in July,
And the folks born in July, like me,
Will always feel the need to be
At home in their arms for evermore,
Thankin' all the stars in heaven for
The people born in May!
