Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I hear music and there's no one there
I smell blossoms and the trees are bare
All night long, I'm walking on air
I wonder why, I wonder why
[Verse 2]
I keep tossing in my sleep at night
And I've lost my appetite
Stars that used to twinkle in the sky
Now twinkle in my eye
I wonder why, I wonder why, I wonder why, why, why
[Verse 3]
You don't need analyzing
It is not so surprising
That you feel very strange but nice
Your heart goes pitter-patter
I know just what's the matter
Because I've been there once or twice
[Verse 4]
And I keep tossing in my little sleep at night
(Put your head on my shoulder)
(You need someone who's older)
Oh, I've lost the appetite
(A rub down with a velvet glove)
Stars that used to twinkle in the sky
(There is nothing you can take)
(To relieve that pleasant ache)
Now twinkle in my eye
(You're not sick, you're just in love)
Oh, I wonder why
[Verse 5]
I keep tossing in my sleep at night
And I've lost the appetite
Stars that used to twinkle in the sky
Now twinkle in my eye, that twinkle in the sky
That twinkle in the eye, that twinkle in the sky
That twinkle in the eye, that twinkle in the sky
I wonder why, why, why
