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 I'm bored The sleepless nights, the daily fights The quick to bargain when you reach the heights I miss the kisses, and I miss the bite 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 mismating of a him and her I've learned my lesson But I wish I 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 I don't like quiet And I wish I were in love again
