I Can't Believe You're in Love With Me
Harry Arnold Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And when you smiled at me,
In my heart I felt a thrill you see,
That it was love at sight and
I was right to love you as I do.
Still I never dreamed that you could love me too.
Your eyes of blue, your kisses too,
I can't believe that you're in love with me.
You're telling ev'ry one I know
I'm on your mind each place we go
They can't believe that you're in love with me.
I have always placed you far above me.
I just can't imagine that you love me.
And after all is said and done,
To think that I'm the lucky one.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.
Skies are gray. I'm blue each day
When you are not around.
Ev'ry thing goes wrong, my dear I've found
But when you're by my side I fill with pride
For I'm so proud of you
It all seems too good to me to all be true
Your eyes of blue, your kisses too,
I never knew what they could do.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.
You're telling ev'ry one I know
I'm on your mind each place we go
They can't believe that you're in love with me.
I have always placed you far above me.
I just can't imagine that you love me.
And after all is said and done,
To think that I'm the lucky one.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.

I love what a good sport Arnold was about this. Not many famous people join the acting cast in the SNL skits that are parodying them.
Bo Cameron
Like Steven Segal lol

Nealon said that they were very nervous and anxious about meeting him, when he came to SNL and agreed to be on the skit. When they entered his dressing room there was a lot of smoke and he was sitting in a chair smoking a cigar, and said:
So guys, how do you want me to do the accent?
Such a cool dude.

I lost it when Hans and Franz said to the children: "Now, before you oil up it is very important to shave all your body hair!" "Yeah, that's right. We are completely hairless."
