I Wish I Were In Love Again

[Intro: Cleo Laine, Mel Torme, Both]
You don't know that I felt good when we up and parted
You don't know I knocked on wood, gladly brokenhearted
Worrying is through; I sleep at night
Appetite and health restored
You don't know how much--We're bored

[Verse 1: Cleo Laine]
The sleepless nights, the daily fights
The quick toboggan when you reach the heights
I miss the kisses and I miss the bites
I wish I were in love again

[Verse 2: Mel Torme]
The broken dates, the endless waits
The lovely loving and the hateful hates
The conversation with the flying plates, ha
I wish I were in love again

[Chorus 1: Both, Cleo Laine]
No more pain
No more strain
Now we're sane, but
I would rather be ga-ga

[Verse 3: Both]
The pulled out fur of cat and cur
The fine mismating of a him and her
We've learned our lesson and we wish we were
In love again

[Verse 4: Cleo Laine]
The furtive sigh, the blackened eye
The words "I love you 'til the day I die"
The self-deception that believes the lie
I wish I were in love again

[Verse 5: Mel Torme]
When love congeals, it soon reveals
The faint aroma of performing seals
The double-crossing of a pair of heels
I wish I were in love again

[Chorus 2: Both, Mel Torme]
No despair
No more care
We're all there, but
I would rather be punch-drunk

[Verse 6: Both]
Believe me, sir, we much prefer
The classic battle of a him and her
We don't like quiet
And we wish we were
In love again

[Outro: Both]
In love
In love
In love
In love
In love
In love again
