Made famous by William (Bill) "Count" Basie. Written by Freddie Green and lyrics by Donald E. Wolf
lyrics
I used to be so fancy free,
But really lonesome as can be
Till one lucky day,
You came my way
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I used to think there’d never be
Someone who’d ever care for me
Then what do you know?
You made it so
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
When you kissed me
I felt the seasons change from Winter to Spring
When you kissed me
I lost my reason when I heard the birds sing
Love was the thing
And now I have to rub my eyes
Each time I try to realize
That your love is mine
Ain’t it just fine
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
Since I found you I feel
The entire universe real
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I’m the happiest girl
Cause you got my head in a whirl
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
And now I have to rub my eyes
Each time I try to realize
That your love is mine
Ain’t it just fine
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
Alt lyrics:
(/ Felt like a Queen )
(/You’re the most wonderful boy)
(/Cause you bring me nothing but joy)
