Lyrics
- For the first time since I met you
An opportunity is here
To tell you how I love you
What you mean to me, my dear
Someone else may write a poem
To let you know just how they feel
But you’ll find that my sentiments
Are just as real
Chorus:
Lovable, Lovable
How I’d love to be your one and only
Could you care a little bit for lonely me?
Lovable, Lovable
I’m so happy just to be around you
I was mighty lucky that I found you free
I call you “Lovable”
That’s the name that fits you like a glove
Beautiful, wonderful, made for me to love
Lovable, Lovable
All my life you’ll be the one I care for
Can’t you find a little love to spare for me
- Let the whole world sing your praises
Nobody blames them if they do
But please dear won’t you listen
While I sing your praises, too
Just believe me when I tell you
I fell in love right from the start
And each word that I bring to you
Comes from my heart
