Dialogue

So In Love, Music & Lyrics by Cole Porter: "Strange dear, but true, dear, When I'm close to you dear,
The stars fill the sky,
So in love with you am I.
In love with the night mysterious,
The night when you first were there.
In love with my joy delirious
When I knew that you could care..."
