Lyrics I'm in Love with a Wonderful Guy (From "South Pacific") - Mitzi Gaynor

I'm in Love with a Wonderful Guy (From "South Pacific")

I expect everyone of my crowd to make fun of my proud protestations of faith
and romance.
And they’ll say I’m naive as a babe to believe any fable I hear from a person
in pants.
Fearlessly I’ll face them and argue their doubts away.
Loudly I’ll sing about flowers and Spring.
Flatly I’ll stand on my little flat
feet and say-
Love is a grand and a beautiful thing.
I’m not ashamed to reveal the world-famous feeling I feel.
I’m as corny as Kansas in August,
I’m as normal as blueberry pie,
no longer a smart little girl with no heart
I’m in love with a wonderful guy!
I’m in a conventional dither
with a conventional star in my eye,
and you will note there’s a lump in my throat
when I speak of that wonderful guy!
I’m as tried and as gay as a daisy
and may a cliche coming true,
I’m promitic and bright as a moon
lapping night pouring light on the dew!
I’m as corny as Kansas in August,
high as a flag on the Fourth of July,
if you’ll excuse an expression I use,
I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love,
I’m in love, I’m in love with a wonderful guy!
I’m as corny as Kansas in August,
high as a flag on the Fourth of July,
If you’ll excuse, I’m in love,
I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love,
I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love,
I’m in love, I’m in love, I’m in love,
I’m in love, I’m in love with a wonderful guy!
