Never thought I'd fall
But now I hear love call
I'm gettin' sentimental over you

Things you say and do
Just thrill me through and through
I'm gettin' sentimental over you

I thought I was happy
I could live without love
Now I must admit, love is all I'm thinking of

Won't you please be kind
And just make up your mind
That you'll be sweet and gentle
Be gentle with me
Because I'm sentimental over you

[Spoken]
Honey child, I thought I was happy
And that I could live without love
But darling, now I got to admit to you
Love is all I'm thinking of
Come on, baby
Won't you please be kind?
It ain't hard for you to make up your mind
That you'll be sweet and gentle
Honey, I mean, just gentle to me
[Singing]
Because I'm sentimental over you!
