About
"Being in love
Is of course my favorite dream
Oh yes
I've been in love
More than anybody else has
I guess
My first love
Heroically ran the streetcar
I tingled with every clang clang
Next I fell for the principal
But oh that teacher who sang
In the glowind
Knee deep in love
What a lovely dream and yet
Somehow
Me deep in love's
Only half of what I'm longing for now
I still love my being in love with someone
But tell me
Why couldn't there be
Somebody being in love with me?
All I want is a plain man
All I want is a modest man
A quiet man
A gentleman
A straight-forward and honest man to sit with me
In a cottage
Somewhere in the country of Japan
And I would like him to be
More interested in me
Than he is in himself
And more interested in us
Than in me
And if occasionally he pondered
What makes Shakespeare and Beethoven great
Him I could love 'till I die
Him
I could love
'Till I die
Being in love
What a lovely dream
And yet
Somehow
Me deep in love's
Only half of what I'm longing for now
So then at night I'll be in bed dreaming
And hoping that someday there'll be
Just once!
Somebody being in love
With me!"
