I AM IN LOVE (Cole Porter) ("Can Can")
I am dejected. I am depressed. Yet resurrected and sailed to crest.
Why this elation, mixed with deflation? What explanation? I am in love.
Such conflicting questions rise around in my brain:
Should I order cynanide or champagne?
Oh, what is this sudden jolt?
I feel like a frightened colt, just hit by a thunderbolt. I am in love.
I knew the odds were against me before, I had no flair for flaming desire,
But since the gods gave me you to adore, I may lose but I refuse to fight the
fire,
So come and enlighten my days and never depart.
You only can brighten the blaze that burns in my heart,
For I am wildly in love with you, and so in need of a stampede of love,
and so in need of a stampede of love.
