I'm In Love
The Country Club Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yesterday you came my way,
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 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.

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.

Yesterday you came my way,
I met you yesterday,

And when you smiled at me,
And when you smiled at me,

In my heart I felt a thrill you see,
I felt an exciting sensation within,

That it was love at sight and
I fell in love with you as soon as I saw you and

I was right to love you as I do.
I knew it was right to love you so deeply.

Still I never dreamed that you could love me too.
Despite my feelings, I never thought you could possibly love me back.

Your eyes of blue, your kisses too,
Your blue eyes and sweet kisses,

I never knew what they could do.
I had no idea their effect on me.

You're telling ev'ry one I know
You're telling everyone I know
