Judy Garland - Dear Mr. Gable Lyrics
Dear Mr. Gable,I am writing this to youand I hope that you will read it so you'll knowMy heart beats like a hammerand I stutter and I stammerevery time I see you at the picture show.I guess I'm just another fan of yoursand I thought I'd write and tell you so.You made me love youI didn't wanna do it, I didn't wanna do it.You made me love youand all the time you knew it, I guess you always knew it.You made me happy, sometimes you made me glad.But there were times, sir, you made me feel so sad.You made me sigh 'causeI didn't wanna tell you, I didn't wanna tell youI think you're grand, that's trueYes I do, 'deed I do, you know I do.I must tell you what I'm feelingThe very mention of your namesends my heart reeling.You know you made me love you!Aw, gee, Mr. Gable, I don't wanna bother you! Guess you got a lotta girls that tell you the same thing. And if you don't wanna read this, well, you don't have to. But I just had to tell you about the time I saw you in "It Happened One Night". That was the first time I ever saw you, and I knew right then you were the nicest fella in the movies! I guess it was 'cause you acted so, well so natural like - not like a real actor at all, but just like any fella you'd meet at school or at a party. Then one time I saw you in a picture with Joan Crawford, and I had to cry a little 'cause you loved her so much and you couldn't have her - not 'till the end of the picture, anyway. And then one time I saw you in person. You were making a personal appearance at the theatre, and I was standing there when you got out of your car, and you almost knocked me down! Oh - but it wasn't your fault! Naw, I was in the way. But you looked at me, and you smiled. Yeah! You smiled right at me as if you meant it, and I cried all the way homeme just 'cause you smiled at me for being in your way! Aw, I'll never forget it, Mr. Gable. Honest. You're my favorite actor!(singing)I don't care what happens, let the whole world stop.As far as I'm concerned, you'll always be the top,'cause you know you made me love you.
