It's De Lovely

Lyrics

The night is young, the skies are clear
 So 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 you, just say to me,
 "It's delightful, it's delicious,
 It's delectable, it's delirious,
 It's dilemma, it's delimit, it's deluxe,
 It's de-lovely".
 I feel a sudden urge to sing
 The kind of ditty that invokes the spring.
 I'll control my desire to curse
 While you crucify the verse.
 This verse I started seems to me
 The Tin-Pantithesis of a melody
 So spare us all the pain,
 Just skip the darn thing and sing the refrain
 Mi, mi, mi, mi,
 Re, re, re, re,
 Do, sol, mi, do, la, si.
 The night is young, the skies are clear
 So 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 you, just say to me,
 "It's delightful, it's delicious,
 It's, it's de-lovely".
