In An Old Dutch Garden Song Lyrics
In An Old Dutch Garden by Glenn Miller Imagination
Artist: Frank Sinatra w/Tommy Dorsey Orchestra—from the CD “Tommy Dorsey
and Frank Sinatra-Stardust” (Bluebird 61073-2)
Words and Music by Jimmy Van Heusen and Johnny Burke
(instrumental opening—complete verse, chorus, and verse)
Imagination is funny, it makes a cloudy day sunny
Makes a bee think of honey just as I think of you
Imagination is crazy, you whole perspective gets hazy
Starts you asking a daisy what to do, what to do
CHORUS:
Have you ever felt a gentle touch and then a kiss and then, and then
Find it’s only your imagination again, oh well
Imagination is silly, you go around willy-nilly
For example I go around wanting you
And yet I can’t imagine that you want me too
(instrumental close—final 3-line verse)
