Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney - I Wish I Were in Love Again

You don't know that I felt good
When we up and parted
You don't know I knocked on wood
Gladly, broken hearted

Worrying is through, I sleep all night
Appetite and health restored
You don't know how much we're bored

The sleepless nights, the daily fights
The quick toboggan when you reach the heights
I miss the kisses and I miss the bites
I wish I were in love again

The broken dates, the endless waits
The lovely loving and the hateful hates
The conversation with the flying plates
I wish I were in love again

No more pain
No more strain
Now I'm sane
But I would rather be ga, ga

The pulled out fur of cat and cur
The fine mis-mating of a him and her
We've learned our lesson
And we wish we were in love again

The furtive sigh, the blackened eye
The words, "I'll love you 'til the day I die"
The self deception that believes the lie

I wish I were in love again

When love congeals, it soon reveals
The faint aroma of performing seals
The double crossing of a pair of heels

I wish I were in love again

No more care
No despair
I'm all there now
But I'd rather be punch drunk

Believe me sir, I much prefer
The classic battle of a him and her
We don't like quiet and we wish we were in love again
