| I was a humdrum person |
| Leading a life apart |
| When love flew in through my window wide |
| And quickened my hum-drum heart |
| Love flew in through my window |
| I was so happy then |
| But after love had stayed a little while |
| Love flew out again |
| What is this thing called love? |
| This funny thing called love? |
| Just who can solve its mystery? |
| Why should it make a fool of me? |
| I saw you there one wonderful day |
| You took my heart and threw it away |
| That’s why I ask the Lord in Heaven above |
| What is this thing called love? |
| You gave me days of sunshine |
| You gave me nights of cheer |
| You made my life an enchanted dream |
| 'Til somebody else came near |
| Somebody else came near you |
| I felt the winter’s chill |
| And now I sit and wonder night and day |
| Why I love you still? |
