It's DeLovely

It's De-Lovely - Ella Fitzgerald

I feel a sudden urge to sing

The kind of ditty that invokes the spring

So control your desire to curse

While I crucify the verse

This verse I've started seems to me

The tin pan-tithesis of melody

So to spare you all the pain

I'll skip the darn thing and sing the refrain

The night is young the skies are clear

And if you want to go walking dear

It's delightful

It's delicious it's de-lovely

I understand the reason why

You're sentimental

Cause so am i

It's delightful it's delicious

It's de-lovely

You can tell at a glance

What a swell night this is for romance

You can hear

Dear mother nature murmuring low

Let yourself go

So please be sweet my chickadee

And when I kiss ya just say to me

It's delightful it's delicious

It's delectable it's delirious

It's dilemma it's de limit

It's deluxe it's de-lovely

You can tell at a glance

What a swell night this is for romance

You can hear dear mother nature

Murmuring low let yourself go

So please be sweet my chickadee

And when I kiss ya just say to me

It's delightful it's delicious

It's delectable it's delirious

It's dilemma it's de limit

It's deluxe it's de-lovely
