Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- I used to wonder why all lovers love to sigh
And hold each other’s hand at night
With them I’ve often chaffed
At times I’ve even laughed
And thought it such a funny sight
But since I met you dear
It doesn’t seem so queer
It seems the proper thing to do
For when you are away, I’m lonely all the day
And think of nothing else but you
Chorus
I am awful glad I met you
And I want to tell you true
That I never can forget you
There’s no other girl will do
There is something sweet to live for
Since I fell in love with you
I am awful glad I met you dearie
Ain’t you glad you met me, too?
- Sometimes when I feel blue
As fellows often do
I only need to see you smile
Whenever you are near
All worries disappear
That’s why I’m ’round you all the while
You suit me to a “T”
Both you and I agree
We suit each other ev’ry way
Whatever pleases you
Just seems to please me, too
And that’s the reason why I say
