One of those bells that now and then rings
Here's hoping we meet now and then
Was too hot, not to cool down
If we'd thought a bit of the end of it
"Romeo, why not face the fact, my dear?"
When we started painting the town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Just one of those things
It was just one of those things
If we'd thought a bit of the end of it
As Columbus announced
It was great fun
Just one of those fabulous flights
We'd have been aware that our love affair
But it was just one of those things
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
Just one of those things
But it was just one of those things
When we started painting the town
When he knew he was bounced
It was just one of those nights
So good-bye, dear and amen
As Juliet cried in her Romeo's ear
"It was swell, Isabel, swell"
As Abelard said to Eloise
Was too hot, not to cool down
So good-bye, dear and amen
Just one of those crazy flings
"Don't forget to drop a line to me, please"
It was great fun
Here's hoping we meet now and then
