I Wish I Were In Love Again Lyrics

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 bite
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 mismating 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'll 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 cla*sic battle of a him and her
I don't like quiet
And I wish, I were in love again
