My Romance

(Victor Young / Ned Washington)

Al Bowlly accompanied by Orchestra

Each love affair they sing about is pretty much the same
But they don’t know how different love can be
They’re other ways to bring about that gentle little flame
Let me explain the way love came to me

My romance was different from the rest
We met one rainy afternoon
A parasol went gay, and I was in the way
She didn’t even say “I’m sorry”

My romance, it started on the spot
Without the aid of stars or the moon
A look, a smile, a sigh
I still can’t figure why
But that’s how my romance began

My romance, it started on the spot
Without the aid of stars or the moon up above
A look, a smile, a sigh
I still can’t figure why
But that’s how my romance began
