SO IN LOVE
Written by Cole Porter for the musical "Kiss Me, Kate" (1948)
As sung by Patricia Morison on the original cast album.

Strange, dear, but true, dear,
When I'm close to you, dear,
The stars fill the sky,
So in love with you am I.

Even without you,
My arms fold about you.
You know, darling, why:
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 might care.

So taunt me and hurt me,
Deceive me, desert me;
I'm yours 'til I die,
So in love,
So in love,
So in love with you, my love, am I.
