i am in love
I am dejected, I am depressed Yet resurrected and sailing the 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 order 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  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
