I'm Falling In Love With Someone 1910 'Naughty Marietta'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 26 Feb 2004

I've a very strange feeling
I ne'er felt before,
'tis a kind of a grind of depression;
My heart's acting strangely,
it feels rather sore,
at least it gives me that impression.
My pulses leap madly without any cause,
Believe me, I'm telling you truly,
I'm gay without pause,
then sad without cause,
My spirits are truly unruly.

For I'm falling in love with some one,
some one girl;
I'm falling in love with some one, head awhirl;
Yes! I'm falling in love with some one,
plain to see,
I'm sure I could love some one madly,
If some one would only love me!

Now, I don't mind confessing
that I used to scoff
at this sort of a sport of flirtation;
I used to believe
that I'd never be caught,
in this foolish but fond complication.
I'm losing all relish
for things that were dear,
I'm looking for trouble and know it,
when some one is near,
I'm feeling quite queer,
but I heartily hope I don't show it.

For I'm falling in love with some one,
some one girl;
I'm falling in love with some one, head awhirl;
Yes! I'm falling in love with some one,
plain to see,
I'm sure I could love some one madly,
If some one would only love me!
