I Wish I Were In Love Again

Judy Garland · Smilin' Through-The Singles Collection 1936-47 [2006]

You don't know that I felt good



When we up and parted



You don't know I knocked on wood



Gladly, broken hearted



Worrying is through, I sleep all night



Appetite and health restored



You don't know how much



I'm bored



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



The broken dates, the endless waits



The lovely loving and the hateful hates



The conversation with the flying plates



I wish I were in love again



No more pain



No more strain



Now I'm sane



But I would rather be ga, ga



The pulled out fur of cat and cur



The fine mis mating of a him and her



I've learned my lesson



But I wish I were in love again



The furtive sigh, the blackened eye



The words, "I love you till the day I die"



The self deception that believes the lie



I wish I were in love again



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



No more care



No despair



I'm all there now



But I'd rather be punch drunk



Believe me sir, I much prefer



The classic battle of a him and her



I don't like quiet and I wish I were



In love again



No more pain



No more strain



Now I'm sane



But I would rather be ga, ga



The pulled out fur of cat and cur



The fine mis mating of a him and her



I've learned my lesson



But I wish I were in love again
