Billie Holiday
The Mood That I’m In
[Verse 1]
Never dared to have your arms around me
Not that I considered it a sin
But tonight I want your arms around me
It's the mood that I'm in
[Verse 2]
Can it be the music that they're playin'
Or the magic of the violin
That intrigues my heart into obeyin'?
It's the mood that I'm in
[Verse 3]
Maybe it's the cocktail that I'm sippin'
That helps to put me in this frame of mind
Maybe it's because of you I'm slippin'
Tonight I'm so romantically inclined!
[Verse 4]
So speak to me of love in words so tender
Let the rhapsody of life begin
I could give my heart in sweet surrender
It's the mood I'm in
