The Mood That I'm In - Original - Teddy Wilson And His Orchestra

Never dared to have your arms around me

Not that I considered it a sin

But tonight I want your arms around me

It’s the mood that I’m in

Can it be the music that they’re playin'

Or the magic of the violin

That intrigues my heart into obeyin'?

It’s the mood that I’m in

Maybe it’s the cocktail that I’m sippin'

That helps to put me in this frame of mind

Maybe it’s because of you I’m slippin'

Tonight I’m so romantically inclined!

So speak to me of love in words so tender

Let the rhapsody of life begin

I could give my heart in sweet surrender

It’s the mood I’m in
