Lyrics

All my life, I've been so secluded
Love has eluded me
But from knowing second hand what I'd do of it
I feel certain I could stand a closer view of it
Till today I studied love discreetly
But now that I'm completely free
I must find some kind persona grata
To give me data personally
Why shouldn't I
Take a chance when romance passes by
Why shouldn't I
Know of love
Why wait around
When each age has a sage who has found
That upon this Earth
Love is all that is really worth thinking of
It must be fun, lots of fun
To be sure when day is done
That the hour is coming when
You'll be kissed and then you'll be kissed again
All debutantes say it's good
And every star out in far Hollywood
Seems to give it try
So why shouldn't I
Why shouldn't I
Why shouldn't I
