ELLA FITZGERALD - I Am In Love lyrics

rate me

I am dejected. I am depressed.<br>Yet resurrected and sailing the crest.<br>Why this elation, mixed with deflation? <br>What explanation? I am in love.<br><br>Such conflicting questions rise<br>Around in my brain: should I order cynanide<br>Or order champagne? <br><br>Oh, what is this sudden jolt? <br>I feel like a frightened colt,<br>Just hit by a thunderbolt. I am in love.<br><br>I knew the odds were against me before,<br>I had no flair for flaming desire,<br>But since the gods gave me you to adore,<br>I may lose but I refuse to fight the fire,<br><br>So come and enlighten my days and never depart.<br>You only can brighten the blaze that burns in my heart,<br>For I am wildly in love with you,<br>And so in need of a stampede of love.<br><br>I knew the odds were against me before,<br>I had no flair for flaming desire,<br>But since the gods gave me you to adore,<br>I may lose but I refuse to fight the fire,<br><br>So come and enlighten my days and never depart.<br>You only can brighten the blaze that burns in my heart,<br>For I am wildly in love with you,<br>And so in need of a stampede of love,<br>And so in need of a stampede of love.
