I Love The Way You Say Goodnight (with The Norman Luboff Choir & The Buddy Cole Quartet)

by Doris Day

Lyrics
It's been a wonderful evening
everything turned out just right
but for me
the best time of the evening
is the time spent saying goodnight

I love the way
You say
goodnight
I kinda like the way
You mumble
Mmmmmm
While you fumble for the key
More time for kissing me

I love the way (I love the way)
You say (You say)
goodnight (the extraordinary way you say goodnight)
I kinda like the way you
Linger with your finger
On the bell
Mmmmmm
More kisses
And they're swell
When you say
Gotta get home by twelve
I always say let's go
but you can take
longer to say good night
Than any three others I know

I love the way (I love the way)
You say (You say)
goodnight (the super-duper special way you hold me tight)
I kinda like the way
You snuggle
While you juggle
With your comb
Mmmmmm
you're never
Never, never going home

here's the door
(here's the key)
aren't u tarried waiting for
little low me
(I could go on
waiting all night
as long as I'm waiting
I keep holding you tight
cuz I love the way)
i love the way
(You say) You say
(goodnight) the way you leave me flying higher than the kite
I kinda like the way you
Linger with your finger
On the bell
Mmmmmm
More kisses
And they're swell

When I say
Gotta get home by twelve
You always say let's go
but you can take
longer to say good night
Than any three others I know

I love the way (I love the way)
You say (You say)
(the super special way) goodnight
juggle and squeeze me well u kiss me nighty night

I like the way
You snuggle
While I juggle
With my comb
Mmmmm
you never
Never, never
Never, never
Never going home
