What Is This Thing Called Love? Lyrics

I was a humdrum person

 

Leading a life apart

 

When love flew in through my window wide

 

And quickened my hum-drum heart

 

Love flew in through my window

 

I was so happy then

 

But after love had stayed a little while

 

Love flew out again

 

What is this thing called love

 

This funny thing called love

 

Just who can solve its mystery

 

Why should it make a fool of me

I saw you there one wonderful day

 

You took my heart and threw it away

 

That's why I ask the Lord in Heaven above

 

What is this thing called love

 

You gave me days of sunshine

 

You gave me nights of cheer

 

You made my life an enchanted dream

 

'til somebody else came near

 

Somebody else came near you

 

I felt the winter's chill

 

And now I sit and wonder night and day

 

 

Why I love you still
