I'm Glad There Is You

I'm Glad There Is You - Carmen McRae

Said I many times love is illusion

A feeling result of confusion

With knowing smile and blazing sigh

A cynical so and so am I

I feel so sure so positive

So utterly unchangingly certain

That I never was aware of loving you

'Til suddenly I realized

That there was love and you and I

In this world of ordinary people

Extraordinary people

I'm glad there is you

In this world of over-rated pleasures

And under-rated treasures

I'm so glad there is you

I live to love

I love to live with you beside me

This role so new

I'll muddle through with you to guide me

In this world where many

Many play at love

And hardly any stay in love

I'm glad there is you

More than ever

I'm glad there is you
