What Is This Thing Called Love Lyrics - Anita O'day

I was a hum-drum person 

Leading a life apart 

When love flew in through my window wide 

And quickened my hum-drum heart 

Love flew in thorough my window 

I was so happy then 

But after love had stayed a little while 

Love flew out again 

What is this thing called love? 

This funny thing called love? 

Just who can solve its mystery? 

Why should it make a fool of me? 

I saw you there one wonderful day 

You took my heart and threw my heart away 

That's why I ask the Lawd up in Heaven above 

What is this thing called love? 

You gave me days of sunshine 

You gave me nights of cheer 

You made my life an enchanted dream 

'Til somebody else came near 

Somebody else came near you 

I felt the winter's chill 

And now I sit and wonder night and day 

Why I love you still?
