noël coward - why does love get in the way so? كلمات أغنية

as recorded in london, july 12, 1951
café de paris orchestra with piano accompaniment by norman hackforth

suddenly my world has altered
suddenly my step has faltered
common sense has flown
here i am alone
coping with these new sensations
black despairs and wild elations
eros with his bow—has laid me low

why does love get in the way so?
what have i done
that this son-of-a-gun
should pick on me?
a little while ago my heart was serene and g-y
everything seemed okay
but now i suddenly find—i’ve lost my way
why does love lead one astray so?
why, oh why
i want to laugh
i want to cry?
i was g-y as a sparrow
till cupid’s arrow
punctured this perfect day
why does love—get in the way?

everything is blown to blazes
ordinary familiar phrases
seem to mean much more
than they meant before
colours seem a great deal brighter
black is blacker, white is whiter
every sight and sound
has changed around
why does love get in the way so?
what should it fret
and comlpetely upset
my peace of mind?
why, only yesterday my heart was serene and bright
everything seemed all right
but now i’m struck by a charge of dynamite!
why does love lead one astray so?
why the h-ll
should i be caught within it’s spell?
life was quite un-enchanted
all that i wanted
now it’s a p-ssion play
why does love get in the way?
why does love get in the way?

- noel coward
