I Wish I Were in Love Again (From "Babes in Arms")

by Jack Cassidy

Lyrics
You don't know that I felt good
When we up and parted
You don't know I knocked on wood
Gladly broken hearted
Worrying is through, I sleep all night
Appetite and health restored
You don't know how much I'm bored
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 gaga
The pulled out fur
Of cat and cur
The fine mismating of 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 die"
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 heels
I wish I were in love again
No more care
No despair
I'm all there
But I would rather be punch drunk

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
