Sing a song of sixpence, pocket full of rye four and twenty blackbirds baked into a pie When the pie was opened and set before the king four and twenty blackbirds started into sing
Sing a melody of love, a song will win your lady fair Sing a song that mentions love and you will yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi

I'm In The Mood For Love Composer(s): Dorothy Fields; Jimmy McHugh Performer(s): Frances Langford and multiple other artists
Lovely interlude, most romantic mood And your attitude is right, dear Sweetheart, you have me under a spell Now my dream is real, that is why I feel Such a strong appeal tonight Somehow, all my reason takes flight, dear...
I'm in the mood for love Simply because you're near me Funny, but when you're near me I'm in the mood for love
Heaven is in your eyes Bright as the stars we're under Oh, is it any wonder? I'm in the mood for love
Why stop to think of whether This little dream might fade We've put our hearts together Now we are one, I'm not afraid
If there's a cloud above If it should rain, we'll let it But, for tonight, forget it I'm in the mood for love
Why stop to think of whether This little dream might fade We've put our hearts together Now we are one, I'm not afraid
