To Know You
( Is
To Love You ) ( 1959 Version )
To know you, is to love you, And I love
you . . . 'cause I know you . . . Are such a sweetheart . . . that when you
walk down the street, Everyone's heart, just naturally skips a beat!
The others, who have met you, Better
start in . . . to forget you . . . Because, to know you is to love you so, It's
time for everyone you know, To know you . . . love me!
Were you the sun, it would be twice as sunny, Were
you a bee, there would be sweeter honey, Were you a tune everyone would be
croonin' Harmonizin' out in the street! You're such a bundle of me oh my, And
that's the reason when you go by, Each heart naturally skips a beat!
Dear . . .
The others . . . (
Were you the spring, you would be twice as springy! )
Who have met you . . .
( Were you
a vine, you would be twice as clingy! ) Better
start in . . . ( Were you the moon,
everyone would be spoonin'! ) To forget
you . . . ( Every night would be
mighty sweet! ) Because,
to know you is to love you so, It's time for everyone you know, To know
you . . . love me!
Because, to know you is to love you so, It's
time for everyone you know, To know you . . . everyone should know you . . . Know
. . . yes, know . . . you love me!
