Song Lyrics

It's the wrong time and the wrong place
Though your face is charming, it's the wrong face
It's not his face, but such a charming face
That it's all right with me

It's the wrong song in the wrong style
Though your smile is lovely, it's the wrong smile
It's not his smile, but such a lovely smile
That it's all right with me

[Chorus: x2]
You can't know how happy I am that we met
I'm strangely attracted to you
There is someone I'm trying so hard to forget
Don't you want to forget someone to?

It's the wrong game, with the wrong chips
Though your lips are tempting, they're the wrong lips
They're not his lips, but they're such tempting lips
That if some night you are free
Well, it's all right, yes, it's all right
Baby, don't you know it's all right with me?

Bennie Benjamin, George David Weiss
