I used to play it by ear That wonderful thing called love I never believed I'd fall in love, not me I used to think that those who kissed and ran away Would live to kiss again Another day I used to laugh at romance but now that I know the score But now that the one I've waited for is here I know that this is the song the angels sing This is the "once-in-a-lifetime" thing This is the real McCoy and it's crystal clear What's deep in your heart Can't be played by ear
