I've Got A Feeling I'm Falling
Nat King Cole · Other Songs - Nat King Cole
Fallin' for nobody else but you
You caught my eye, and I've got a feelin' I'm fallin'
Show me the ring and I'll jump right through!
I used to travel single-o, we chanced to mingle-o
Now I'm a tingle over you
Hey Mister Parson stand by, for I've got a feelin' I'm fallin'
Fallin' for nobody else but you!
(Yes, it's a plain to see that he's flyin' high
and we've got a feelin' he's fallin')
I'm a fallin' for nobody else but you!
(No one else will do, since you,
caught his eye and we've got a feelin' he's fallin')
I'm a fallin' for nobody else but you!
I used to travel single-o, we chanced to mingle-o
Now I'm a tingle over you
(Hey Mister Parson stand by,
cause we've got a feelin' he's fallin')
I'm a fallin' for nobody else but you!
(Nobody else will do,
but you)
