It's easy to live when you're in love
And I'm so in love
There is nothing in life but you
I never regret the years that I'm giving
They're easy to give when you're in love
I'm happy to do whatever I do for you
For you maybe I'm a fool
But it's fun
People say you rule me with one wave of your hand
Darling, it's grand
They just don't understand
Living for you is easy living
It's easy to live when you're in love
And I'm so in love
There's nothing in life but you

Anita was a real phenomenon. Her voice is amazingly expressive and I think she could have been accompanied by a rattling garbage truck and would have come up with a masterpiece. Fortunately for us she was accompanied by the best bands. Youtube is doing a great job of showcasing her performances.
