The Mood That I'm In

The Mood That I'm In - Teddy Wilson

Never there to have your arms around me

Not that I considered it a sin

But tonight I want your arms around me

It's the mood that I'm in

Can it be the music that they're playing

Or the magic of the violin

That intrigues my heart into obeying

It's the mood that I'm in

Maybe it's the cocktails that I'm sipping

That helped to put me in this frame of mind

Maybe it's because of you I'm slipping

Tonight I'm so romantically inclined

So speak to me of love with words so tender

Let the inaudible of life begin

I could give my heart in sweet surrender

It's the mood that I'm in
