Gerry and Carole begin their romantic relationship rather quickly, songwriting for Donnie while simultaneously courting.
Immediately prior to “Some Kind of Wonderful”, Carole confesses to Gerry that she’s pregnant. He proposes marriage and upon her acceptance, they share this duet. Donnie, in love...
[CAROLE]
All you have to do is touch my hand
To show me you understand
And something happens to me
That's some kind of wonderful
Any time my little world is blue
I just have to look at you
And everything seems to be
Some kind of wonderful
[GERRY]
I know I can't express
This feeling of tenderness
There's so much I want to say
[CAROLE]
But the right words just don't come my way
[BOTH]
I just know when I'm in your embrace
This world is a happy place
And something happens to me
That's some kind of wonderful
[DON, spoken]
Now, that's a song
And you guys can finally get your office here
'Cause you know who I'm gonna give that to?
The Drifters!
[ALL]
