As performed by DICK POWELL in the film "On The Avenue":


I love you, which is easy to see
But I have to keep guessing how you feel about me
You listen to the words that I speak
But I feel that you listen with your tongue in your cheek

You're laughing at me
I can't be sentimental
For you're laughing at me, I know

I want to be romantic, but I haven't a chance
You've got a sense of humour
And humour is death to romance

You're laughing at me
Why do you think it's funny
When I say that I love you so

You've got me worried and I'm all at sea
For while I'm crying for you
You're laughing at me

I can't be sentimental
For you're laughing at me, I know

I want to be romantic, but I haven't a chance
You've got a sense of humour
And humour is death to romance

You're laughing at me
Why do you think it's funny
When I say that I love you so

You've got me worried and I'm all at sea
For while I'm crying for you
You're laughing at me
