Lyrics It Just Happened To Happen To Me - Rosemary Clooney, Count Basie Orchestra

It Just Happened To Happen To Me

Anyone with the right approach
Could have won you without a coach
It just happened to happen to me
Each young girl with a grain of sense
Could have tumbled down your defense
It just happened to happen to me
You passed by my doorstep
I fell in with your step
Stayed there just one step behind
You turned into my arms
I gave way to your charms
Said to myself
The harm’s done
All those girls with their hopeful eyes
Better look for another prize
Cause it just happened to happen to me
It happened that you fell in love with me
I saw your eyes glimmer
And sparkle and shimmer
My heart can’t forget how you looked
I tried to resist you
But after I kissed you
I realized my goose was cooked
Though some say it was happenstance
Darling you never had a chance
I made sure that it happened to me
It happened that you fell in love with me
