This Is New 1941 'Lady In The Dark'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 13 Dec 2002

With you I used to roam
through the Pleasure Dome of Kubla Khan,
I held you tight, my love,
in the gardens of Old Babylon,
I lost you through the centuries.
I find you once again,
and find myself the luckiest of men.

This is new, I was merely existing,
this is new and I'm living at last,
head to toe you've got me so I'm spellbound.
I don't know if I am heaven or hellbound.
This is new, is it Venus insisting,
that I'm through with the shadowy past?
I am hurled up to another world
where life is bliss and this is new.

This is new, I was merely existing,
this is new and I'm living at last,
head to toe you've got me so I'm spellbound.
I don't know if I am heaven or hellbound.
This is new, is it Venus insisting,
that I'm through with the shadowy past?
I am hurled up to another world
where life is bliss and this is new.
