about

From the lost 1960s musical "Make it Sing!"

lyrics

I should have known,
It should have been very clear to me,
That once I felt you near to me,
I'd wanna make you mine, mine alone.

I should have known,
That you'd become indispensable,
I used to be so sensible,
When I was on my own.

At first I tried dismissing the feeling,
But now I understand,
That from the way I sigh,
that gleam in my eye,
that thrill when you squeeze my hand.

I'm overthrown
and if I'd ever been wise at all,
There'd be no big surprise at all
In how my love has grown,
I really should have known.

At first I tried dismissing the feeling,
But now I understand,
That from the way I sigh,
that gleam in my eye,
that thrill when you squeeze my hand.

The seeds are sown
and if I'd ever been wise at all,
There'd be no big surprise at all
In how my love has grown,
I really should have known.
There'd be no big surprise at all,
I really should have known.
