I Still Get a Thrill
Joni James Lyrics
Because I still get a thrill thinking of you
And I still feel your lips kissing me too
Although our love affair wasn't to be
I wonder if you care care about me
I still remember that night under the moon
I recall that it all ended too soon
I can't believe you're gone memories linger on
Cause I still get a thrill thinking of you
I recall that it all ended too soon
I can't believe you're gone memories linger on
Cause I still get a thrill thinking of you

wonder if by 1959 teens simply were not going to listen to "Joni"... period. Wonder if "Connie Francis" would have taken this song further...It REALLY is a great song!
