I Didn't Know What Time It Was

I Didn't Know What Time It Was - Artie Shaw

I didn't know what time it was

Then I met you

Oh what a lovely time it was

How sublime it was too

I didn't know what day it was

You hold my hand

Warm like the month of May it was

And I'll say it was grand

Grand to be alive to be young to be mad to be yours alone

Grand to see your face feel your touch

Hear your voice say I'm all your own

I didn't know what year it was

Live was no prize

I wanted love and here it was

Shining out of your eyes so wise

And I know what time it is now
