What A Lovely Afternoon, I walk along and hum a tune, And all because I'm so in love with you.

All the flowers are in bloom, The air is filled with rare perfume, And all because I'm so in love with you.

I see your sweet face, Out in the blue space, What a setting for a lovers rendesvous.

What A Lovely Afternoon, The world and I are right in tune, And all because I'm so in love with you.
