They Say It's Wounderful
The Ray Conniff Singers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say that falling love is wonderful
It's wonderful, so they say
And with the moon up above, it's wonderful
It's wonderful, so they tell me

I can't recall who said it
I know I've never read it
I only know they tell me that love is grand, and

The thing that's known as romance
Is wonderful, wonderful
In every way, so they say

To leave your house some morning
And without any warning, you're stopping people,
Shouting that love is grand, and

To hold a man in your arms is wonderful, wonderful
In every way, so they say

I truely enjoy this song. The album cover is one of my favourites, because it reminds me of one evening when my family was invited over to some friends house. We listened to Ray Conniff, and I got my first taste of this new format called " Stereo".
