lyrics

Love is a many-splendored thing, she said,
Sitting in a corner at The Duchess, now she's dead.

HURRY UP PLEASE IT'S TIME
HURRY UP PLEASE IT'S TIME
HURRY UP PLEASE IT'S TIME
HURRY UP PLEASE IT'S TIME

OOO that cerulean blue
OOO that cerulean blue
Of the Shlachtensee.
We were there, you see. OOO that serendipitous blue

I am not well tonight, not well.
I am falling down a well. Well, I am falling.
It is so very dark, you see, so dark.
I cannot see, let me out of here, catch me.

What is my address? Count backwards from twenty.
Is that the wind again? Who is the reigning monarch?
Why are you asking me? Why is a lion like a wolf?

OOO that cerulean blue
OOO love was right, love was true
On the Wannsee.
Berlin, nineteen-twenty.
OOO that cerulean blue
