(Verse 1)
Look at me again, dear
Let's hold hands and then, dear
Sigh in chorus
It won't bore us
To be sure

There's no meaning to it
Yet we overdo it
With a relish
That is hellish
To endure

I am not the kind that merely flirts
I just love and love until it hurts

(Chorus)
Oh sentimental me and poor romantic you
Dreaming dreams is all that we can do
We hang around all day and ponder
While both of us grow fonder
The Lord knows where we're wander-
Ing to

I sit and sigh, you sigh and sit upon my knee
We laugh and cry and never disagree
A million kisses we'll make theft of
Until there's nothing left of
Poor romantic you and sentimental me
(Verse 2)
Darling, you're so handsome
Strong and clever and some-
Times you seem, dear
Like a dream, dear
That came true

That's why I picked you out
Better men I threw out
Of my living room
While giving room
To you

I would rather read of love in books
Love is much more painful than it looks

(Chorus)
Oh sentimental me and poor romantic you
Dreaming dreams is all that we can do
We hang around all day and ponder
While both of us grow fonder
The Lord knows where we're wander-
Ing to

I sit and sigh, you sigh and sit upon my knee
We laugh and cry and never disagree
A million kisses we'll make theft of
Until there's nothing left of
Poor romantic you and sentimental me
