Annie
Anthony Ventura And His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say that falling love is wonderful
It's wonderful, so they say
And with the moon up above, it's wonderful
It's wonderful, so they tell me

I can't recall who said it
I know I've never read it
I only know they tell me that love is grand, and
The thing that's known as romance
Is wonderful, wonderful
In every way, so they say

To leave your house some morning
And without any warning, you're stopping people,
Shouting that love is grand, and




To hold a man in your arms is wonderful, wonderful
In every way, so they say
