Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you thrill me through with a tender passion
When you said you care, imagine my emotion
I swore then and there, permanent devotion
You made all other men seem blah
Just you alone filled me with, ahh
'S wonderful, 's marvelous
'S awful nice, 's paradise
'S what I love to see
You've made my life so glamorous
You can't blame me for feeling amorous
Oh, 's wonderful, 's marvelous
That you should care for me!
'S magnificque, 's what I seek
You should care for me
'S elegant, 's what I want
'S what I love to see
My dear, it's four-leaved-clover time
From now on my heart's working overtime
'S exceptional, 's no bagatelle
That you should care for
That you should care for
That you should care for me

Such a wonderful Gershwin song.....will last forever, and thanks to Crooner for bringing such enjoyment music back.
Trombonology Erstwhile
This arrangement anticipates the type of big band accompaniment that was often used on vocal records of '50s. Too bad that Buddy didn't live to see that decade.
