I Didn’t Know What Time It Was
Words by Lorenz Hart
Music by Richard Rodgers
Appears on Blue Skies

I didn't know what time it was
Till I met you.
Oh, what a lovely time it was,
How sublime it was too!

I didn't know what day it was
You hold my hand.
Warm like the month of May it was,
and I'll say it was grand.

Grand to be alive, to be young,
to be mad, to be yours alone!
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
hear your voice say I'm yours alone.

I didn't know what year it was life was
no prize.
I wanted love and here it was
shining out of your eyes.
I'm wise and I know what time it is now.

I didn't know what time it was
Till I met you.
Oh, what a lovely time it was,
How sublime it was too!

I didn't know what day it was
You hold my hand.
Warm like the month of May it was,
and I'll say it was grand.

Grand to be alive, to be young,
to be mad, to be yours alone!
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
hear your voice say I'm yours alone.

I didn't know what year it was
life was no prize.
I wanted love and here it was
shining out of your eyes.
I'm wise and I know what time it is now.
