by Albert Hay Malotte (1895 - 1964)
C'est l'amour
Language: English
If now you're gay, and then you're sad, it may be you've had the dart of Cupid pierce your heart-- C'est l'amour! Your head may reel and you may feel a queer sensation a pleasant agitation-- C'est l'amour! You'll kiss her once, you'll kiss her twice, then say: "Goodbye, dear" But you will linger on and on for more. When the rosy daylight comes streaming, you'll say: "I'm sure I've just been dreaming." C'est l'amour!
