C'est Magnifique 1953 Cole Porter

Love is such a fantastic affair
When it comes to call
After taking you up in the air
Down it lets you fall,
But be patient and soon you will find,
if you follow your heart, not your mind,
Love is waiting there again,
to take you up in the air again.

When love comes in
and takes you for a spin,
Oo la la la, c'est magnifique.
When every night,
your loved one holds you tight,
Oo la la la, c'est magnifique.
But when one day,
your loved one drifts away,
Oo la la la, it is so tragique.
But when once more she whispers:
"Je t'adore," c'est magnifique.

When you begin of love to speak
I followed every word
but when you called love magnifique
I would have called it absurd
and when you said it was often tragique
I would have said it was always comique
So, ma'moiselle, be sweet to me
and kindly do not repeat to me.

When love comes in
and takes you for a spin,
Oo la la la, c'est magnifique.
When every night,
your loved one holds you tight,
Oo la la la, c'est magnifique.
But when one day,
your loved one drifts away,
Oo la la la, it is so tragique.
But when once more she whispers:
"Je t'adore," c'est magnifique.
