Refrain
I'M SUSCEPTIBLE TO STARS IN THE SKIES,
I'M INCURABLY ROMANTIC,
IF THEY'RE TOLD TO ME ALL COVERED WITH SIGHS,
THE WILDEST OF LIES SEEM TRUE,
EACH TIME A LOVEBIRD SINGS,
I HAVE NO DEFENSES,
MY HEART IS OFF ON WINGS,
ALONG WITH MY SENSES,
I'M A SETUP FOR THE MOON WHEN IT'S BRIGHT,
I'M INCURABLY ROMANTIC,
AND I SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED OUT AT NIGHT
WITH ANYONE QUITE LIKE YOU,
BUT OH! YOUR ARMS ARE NICE,
AND IT WOULD BE AWF'LY NICE IF YOU...
TURNED OUT TO BE... STARRY-EYED LIKE ME,
AND INCURABLY ROMANTIC TOO!
(Repeat Refrain)
"Let's Make Love" as a duet with both Yves Montand and Frankie Vaughn. It as also recorded
by Bing Crosby and became the title track for Toni Tennille's 2001 album. That just proves, once
again, that good music lasts forever!
INCURABLY ROMANTIC
