In The Mood
Nathan Glantz and His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Simply because you're near me.
Funny, but when you're near me
I'm in the mood for love.
Heaven is in your eyes
Bright as the stars we're under
Oh! Is it any wonder
Why stop to think of whether
This little dream might fade?
We've put our hearts together
Now we are one, I'm not afraid!
If there's a cloud above
If it should rain we'll let it
But for tonight, forget it!
I'm in the mood for love

I'm in the mood for love
I feel romantic and have the desire to be in love
Simply because you're near me.
My feelings of love arise because of your proximity to me
Funny, but when you're near me
It's strange to feel so strongly simply because of your presence
Heaven is in your eyes
Your eyes hold a beauty that is otherworldly, making me feel enchanted
Bright as the stars we're under
Your eyes shine as bright as the stars above us, making me feel like we're in our own little universe
Oh! Is it any wonder
It's no surprise that I feel so strongly for you when you have such intoxicating qualities
Why stop to think of whether
There's no point in worrying about whether or not our relationship will last
This little dream might fade?
This brief moment we share may not last forever
We've put our hearts together
We've joined together emotionally
Now we are one, I'm not afraid!
We've become united and I have no fear of what the future may bring
If there's a cloud above
Even if there is something dampening our mood or outlook
If it should rain we'll let it
We'll accept any setbacks and not let them get in the way of our love
But for tonight, forget it!
Let's enjoy ourselves in this moment and forget about any possible obstacles

So clear. It sounds like the lathe cut disc itself at the time of actual recording.
