Lil Hardin Armstrong - Let's Call It Love lyrics

They took a little pinch from the jasmine bower And mixed it with the fragrance of every other flower And sprinkled it down with a little April shower Said, "Let's call it love" They took a little light from the mellowing moon From the throat of the thrush, they took a little tune And spread it all around, where lovers could spoon Said, "Let's call it love" Now, they found it was a treasure whose price they couldn't measure So they locked it up in everybody's heart The keys, hugs and kisses, you never know what bliss is Until you carry off a little part They took a little sugar and some honey from the bee They put a light in every eye so other folks could see They gave you just a little, but a lot of it to me So baby, let's call it love Now, they found it was a treasure whose price they couldn't measure So they locked it up in everybody's heart The keys, hugs and kisses, you never know what bliss is Until you carry off a little part They gave you just a little, but a lot of it to me So baby, let's call it love
