The night is young The skies are clear And if you want to go walking, dear It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely I understand the reason why You're sentimental, 'cause so am I It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely You can tell at a glance What a swell night this is for romance You can hear dear Mother Nature murmuring low "Let yourself go" So please be sweet, my chickadee And when I kiss you, just say to me "It's delightful, it's delicious It's delectable, it's delirious It's dilemma, it's de-limit Its deluxe, it's de-lovely"
