YOU TOOK ME OUT OF THIS WORLD
Rudy Vallee / Actman / Berle / Brown

as rec by Dorothy Lamour


You took me out of this world
When you came into my heart,
You took me out of this world
Into a world apart;

Where every dream we share
Has a way of coming true,
And darling, this couldn' be,
Had it not been for you!

You took me up on a cloud
Where I could touch every star!
You took me out of the crowd
Into your Shangri-La!

I'm speaking of the land of love
That's bounded by your charms;
You took me out of this world
When you took me in your arms!

You took me out of this world
When you came into my heart,
You took me out of this world
Into a world apart;

Where every dream we share
Has a way of coming true,
And darling, this couldn' be,
Had it not been for you!

You took me up on a cloud
Where I could touch every star!
You took me out of the crowd
Into your Shangri-La!

I'm speaking of the land of love
That's bounded by your charms;
You took me out of this world
When you said "I love you!",
Swore to be true by the stars above you!
Out of this world
When you took me in your arms!
