The night is young
 The skies are clear
 And if you want to go walking, dear
 It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
 
 I understand the reason why
 You're sentimental, 'cause so am I
 It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
 
 You can tell at a glance
 What a swell night this is for romance
 You can hear dear Mother Nature murmuring low
 "Let yourself go"
 
 So please be sweet, my chickadee
 And when I kiss you, just say to me
 "It's delightful, it's delicious
 It's delectable, it's delirious
 It's dilemma, it's de-limit
 Its deluxe* , it's de-lovely."
