Lyrics
Never before and never again
Could anything more romantic and beautiful be
Been so in love, been so in love
It’s incredible no two people
Have ever been so in love as my lovey dove and
This is unique, the positive peak
Oh we are the most unusual couple on earth
Mooned such a moon
Juned such a June
What he means is that no two people
Have ever been so in tune
As my macaroon and I
And when we kiss
Well it’s like this
Let me tell it
No two people have ever been so in love
Been so in love, been so in love
Been so as my lovey dove and
This is the cream, the very extreme
The sort of a dream
You couldn’t imagine at all
Been so As my lovey dove and I
