Rodgers & Hart — I Wish I Were in Love Again

(Verse) [GUS] You don't know that I felt good When we up and parted You don't know I knocked on wood Gladly broken-hearted Worrying is through I sleep all night Appetite and health restored You don't know how much I'm bored (Chorus) [GUS] The sleepless nights The daily fights The quick toboggan when you reach the heights I miss the kisses and I miss the bites I wish I were in love again The broken dates The endless waits The lovely loving and the hateful hates The conversation with the flying plates I wish I were in love again No more pain No more strain Now I'm sane But I would rather be gaga The pulled-out fur Of cat and cur The fine mismating of a him and her I've learned my lesson, but I wish I were In love again (Chorus 2) [DOLORES] The furtive sigh The blackened eye The words "I'll love you till the day I die" The self-deception that believes the lie I wish I were in love again When love congeals It soon reveals The faint aroma of performing seals The double-crossing of a pair of heels I wish I were in love again No more care No despair I'm all there Now, and I'd rather be punch-drunk Believe me, sir I much prefer The classic battle of a him and her I don't like quiet and I wish I were In love again
