Make Someone Happy

Gone . . . gone . . .
Is my love . . . is my love . . .
Is my love!

Gone is she, gone away from me,
But i remember what she said,
Here's my heart, my one an' only heart,
Save it 'till the day we wed!

Gone . . . gone . . .
Is my love . . . is my love . . .
Gone . . . gone . . .
Is my love . . . is my love . . .
Is my love!

Sad was i when we said goodbye,
And as she left i heard her say,
Here's my love, my ever-lasting love,
Save it 'till our wedding day!

Gone . . . gone . . .
Is my love . . . is my love . . .
Is my love!

I can still feel her lips on mine,
Feel the heart within me burn,
Years have come and many years have gone,
Still, i wait for her return.

Gone . . . gone . . .
Is my love . . . is my love . . .
Gone . . . gone . . .
Is my love . . . is my love . . .
Is my love!

Gone is my love!

You wake up dreaming of her embrace
You try to read a book, you lose your place,
No matter where you look, you see that face,
You are in love!

You lose your appetite, and wonder why,
You try to laugh it off, my how you try,
You say she's not for me, but it's a lie,
You are in love . . . you are in love!
You are in love!

You give up with tinkerin' with foreign cars,
You build a rocket ship and fly to mars,
What do you find up there, spelled out in stars?
Why?
Oh . . . you are in love!
You are in love, you are in love . . .
You are in love!

You give up with tinkerin' with foreign cars,
You build a rocket ship and fly to mars,
What do you find up there, spelled out in stars?
Why?
Oh you . . .
You are in love!

In your easter bonnet
With all the frills upon it,
You'll be the grandest lady
In the easter parade!

I'll be all in clover,
And when they look you over
I'll be the proudest fella
In the easter parade!

On the avenue, fifth avenue,
The photographers will snap us
And you'll find that you're
In the rotogravure.

Oh, i could write a sonnet
About your easter bonnet
And of the girl i'm taking
To the easter parade!

Oh, i could write a sonnet
About your easter bonnet
And of the girl i'm taking
To the easter parade!

( ko-ko-mo! ko-ko-mo! ko-ko-mo! . . . )

Talk to me baby, whisper in my ear,
Talk to me baby, whisper in my ear,
A come a little closer, don't you have no fear!

Don't you know? ~ i love you so!
Don't you know? ~ i love you so!
When i holler "hey! ko-ko-mo!"

Heard what you told me, heard what you said!
Heard what you told me, heard what you said!
Don't you worry my purdy, i don't lose my head!

< instrumental break >

There's dimples on my elbows, dimples on her knees,
Dimples on my elbows, dimples on her knees,
She thrills an' thrills me, just a little squeeze!

( ko, ko, ko-ko-mo! ko, ko, ko-ko-mo!
Ko, ko, ko-ko-mo! )

Don't you know ko-ko-mo that i love you so!
Oh talk to me baby ( talk, talk! ) whisper in my ear ( talk, talk, talk! )
Oh talk to me baby ( talk, talk! ) whisper in my ear ( talk, talk, talk! )
( tell it to me! ) come a little closer, don't you have no fear!

Ah! ~ don't you know? ~ i love you so!
Don't you know? ~ i love you so!
When i holler "hey! ( hey! ) ko-ko-mo!"

( ko-ko-mo! ko-ko-mo! ko-ko-mo! )

Don't you know
I love you ko-ko-mo!

Ko-ko-mo!
