Isn't It Romantic?
Steve Tyrell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Music in the night, a dream that can be heard
Isn't it romantic
Moving shadows write the oldest magic word
I hear the breezes playing in the trees above
While all the world is saying you were meant for love
Isn't it romantic
Isn't it romantic
Every note that's sung is like a lover's kiss
Sweet symbols in the moonlight
Do you mean that I will fall in love perchance
Isn't it romance?
(Orchestral Interlude)
Isn't it romantic
Soon I will have found some girl that I adore
Isn't it romantic
While I sit around, my love can scrub the floor
She'll kiss me every hour or she'll get the sack
And when I take a shower, she can scrub my back
Now, isn't that romantic
On a moonlight night she'll cook me onion soup
Kiddies are romantic
And if we don't fight, we soon will have a troupe
We'll help the population
It's a duty that we owe to dear old France
Isn't it romance?
