Carmen McRae - I Wish I Were In Love Again lyrics

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'd rather be punched, drunk The pulled out fur of cat and cur The fine mismatching 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 'til 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 heals I wish I were in love again No, no more care No, no despair Now I'm all there now But I'd rather be punched, drunk Believe me sir, I much prefer The cla**ic battle of a him and her I don't like quiet And I wish I were in love again In love again, in love again
