I Wish I Were In Love Again

Writer(s): rodgers/hart


The sleepless nights - the daily fights
The quick toboggan - when you reach the heights
I miss the kisses - and i miss the bites
I wish i were in love again

The broken dates - the endless waits
The lovely loving - and the hateful hates
The conversation - with the flying plates
I wish i were in love again

No more pain - no more strain
Now i'm sane - but i would rather be punched - drunk

The pulled out fur - of cat and cur
The fine mismating - of a him and her
I've learned my lesson - but i wish i were
In love again

The furtive sigh - the blackened eye
The words: "i love you - 'til the day i day"
The self deception - that believes the lie
I wish i were in love again

When love congeals - it soon reveals
The faint aroma - of performing seals
The double-crossing - of a pair of heals
I wish i were in love again

No, no more care - no, no despair
Now i'm all there (now) - but i'd rather be puncdrunk

Believe me sir - i much prefer
The classic battle - of a him and her
I don't like quiet - and i wish i were
In love again - in love again - in love again
