All in the wonderful game that we know as love
You have words with him and your future's looking dim
But these things your hearts can rise above
Once in a while he won't call but it's all in the game
Soon he'll be there at your side with a sweet bouquet
And he'll kiss your lips and caress your waiting fingertips
(Soon he'll be there at your side) with a sweet bouquet
Then he'll kiss your lips and caress your waiting fingertips
And your hearts will fly away

The music of this song (not the words) was written by a man named Charles Gates Dawes. If you have a thousand guesses, you won't be able to guess what he did for a living in the 1920s. He also won an award of some kind in the 1920s. You won't guess what.

Oh, and I had this 45. I was visiting family in New Jersey when this song was popular. One uncle of mine had a drug store with a soda fountain and a juke box. I was there when the records were change out and uncle gave the replaced records .

Today was the anniversary of my first marriage and this song popped up on my computer. Weird. We were married on September 19th in 1959 and were married 20 years . Sitting here remembering the wonderful times we had. Beautiful song and lots of good memories.
