(Mercury Records) Look at me, I’m as helpless as a kitten up a tree Feel like I’m clinging to a cloud I can’t understand, I get misty just holding your hand. Walk my way, And a thousand violins begin to play Might be the sound of your hello That music I hear, I get misty the moment you’re near And you can see that you’re leading me on And it’s just, and it’s just what I want you to do Don’t you notice how hopelessly I’m lost That’s why I’m following you. On my own, Would I wander through this wonderland alone Never knowing my right foot from my left, My hat from my glove, I’m too misty, and too much in love. And you can see that you’re leading me on And it’s just, and it’s just what I want you to do Don’t you notice how hopelessly I’m lost That’s why I’m following you. On my own, Would I wander through this wonderland alone Never knowing my right foot from my left, My hat from my glove, I’m too misty, and too much in love I get too misty, and too much in love
