Duke Ellington - Lost in Loveliness Lyrics

What a thrill you are
What a sight to see
Something the eyes of mortals have no right to see
Am I on the earth or in the sky?
Lost in loveliness am I
When I look at you
I forget myself
I could go mad about you if I let myself
Should I let myself or pass you by?
Lost in loveliness am I
I know I'm reaching for a star
What's more; I know how dangerous you are
If I were wise
I'd close my eyes
Or walk away and worship from afar
In the lonely night
You would haunt my heart
And I would pray that someday you might want my heart
And I'd have to live my whole life through
Lost in loveliness, the loveliness of you
