Gettin' Sentimental 1931 JPitt-Payne

Never thought about love songs,
never cared about love,
now I keep thinking of it
and I love it!

Gettin' sentimental
want to bill and coo
is it accidental
is it little you?
Gettin' sentimental
and wondering if you
are gettin' sentimental too.
Gettin' so poetic
want to speak in rhyme
really it's pathetic
I'm dreaming all the time;
Gettin' sentimental
and wondering if you
are gettin' sentimental too.
Never thought I'd ever fall
here I am the worst of all,
ev'ry single time I call,
I know it more
more than before.
I get so dramatic
ev'ry time you're near
heart's all full of static
this is all I hear,
I'm gettin' sentimental
and wondering if you
are gettin' sentimental too.

Gettin' sentimental
want to bill and coo
is it accidental
is it little you?
Gettin' sentimental
and wondering if you
are gettin' sentimental too.
Gettin' so poetic
want to speak in rhyme
really it's pathetic
I'm dreaming all the time;
Gettin' sentimental
and wondering if you
are gettin' sentimental too.
Never thought I'd ever fall
here I am the worst of all,
ev'ry single time I call,
I know it more
more than before.
I get so dramatic
ev'ry time you're near
heart's all full of static
this is all I hear,
I'm gettin' sentimental
and wondering if you
are gettin' sentimental too.

Never noticed the moonlight
or the stars in the sky,
now the moonlight speaks of you
for I love you!

Gettin' sentimental
