(Ira Gershwin / George Gershwin)

I could cry salty tears

Where have I been all these years

A little while, tell me now

How long has this been going on?



There were chills, up and down my spine

Yes, there're thrills I can't define

Listen sweet, while I repeat

How long has this been going on?



Oh I could feel that I could melt

Into heaven I'm hurled

Oh I know how Leif Erickson felt

Finding another world

Kiss me once, and then once more

Oh what a dunce I was before

What a break, for heaven's sake

How long has this been going on?



Repeat last verse
