The night is young, the skies are clear
And if you want to go walkin', dear
It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely


I understand the reason why
You're sentimental, 'cause so am I

It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

You can tell at a glance what a swell night this is for romance

You can hear, dear Mother Nature murmuring low "Let yourself go"

So please be sweet, my chickadee

And when I kiss ya, just say to me
"It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious,
It's dilemma, it's de limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely"
