Happy in love, ho-ho, what a feeling
You‘re never never never happy
Till you‘re really, really, really happy in love
Nothing on earth can give you that feeling
You may be silly, silly sappy, but oh, baby, baby,
You’re so happy in love...
You want everybody to know it
You’d like to get up on the highest steeple,
Shout to people...
Happy in love, the sky is your ceiling
You lucky, lucky, lucky chappy,
It’s great to be living when you’re happy in love!
Happy in love, the sky is your ceiling
You lucky, lucky chappy,
It’s great to be living when you’re happy in love,
It’s great ---
To be ---
Livin‘ when you’re happy in love!
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
February 24th 1940 with Ray Eberle.

Hear my song, Violetta,
Hear the song that’s in my heart
Please be mine, Violetta,
Say that we will never part
Ev‘ry night I’m dreaming of you
Ev’ry night I want to whisper, „Dear, I love you!“
Hear my song, Violetta,
Hear the song that’s in my heart!
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
November 22nd 1940 with Ray Eberle.
Written by Jack Lathrop.
Helpless, when I’m with you
I’m helpless, what can I do,
When you’re near me I’m dumb
My heart‘s become
Helpless
Helpless, at your command
I‘m helpless, please understand
I can never be free
I’m all at sea
Helpless
There are words that I should speak now
But I can’t seem to start
You are near and I‘m so weak now
Oh, why can’t I speak with my heart...
I’m helpless, I love you so
It’s hopeless, if you should go
I’d be helpless I fear
Don’t leave me here
Helpless...!
How I’d Like to Be With You In Bermuda
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
February 6th 1939 with Ray Eberle.
Words by Bickley Reichner, music by Clay Boland.
How I’d like to be with you in Bermuda,
What a place to begin a dream
How I’d like to be with you in Bermuda
Without a thing to do but look at you and scheme...
We‘ll sit and sigh Bermuda lullaby
We’ll sit and sigh and watch the moon grow higher
How I’d like to be with you in Bermuda
And let the rest of the world go by...
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
November 3rd 1941 with Ray Eberle.
Words by Johnny Burke, music by James Van Heusen.
(From the movie “Playmates“)
Who’s giving that line to you,
You think it‘s divine, do you?
You’re a crazy Humpty Dumpty heart
You’re letting a grin, kid, you,
You never did win, did you?
Just a silly Humpty Dumpty heart...
Don’t mean to criticize or say I’m wise
But if you will just recall
You sat on a garden wall
And you know what happened...
You‘ll still have a chance, won’t you,
You sure want romance, don’t you?
Hope you’re lucky, Humpty Dumpty heart!
