Frank Sinatra Version:
Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you
Just one look at you
My heart grew tipsy in you
You and you alone
Bring out the Gypsy in me
I love all, the many charms about you
Above all, I want my arms about you
Don't you be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you
Show version:
Verse 1:
Danny:
Dozens of girls would storm up;
I had to lock my door.
Somehow I couldn't warm up
To one before.
What was it that controlled me?
What kept my love life lean?
My intuition told me
You'd come on the scene
Lady, listen to the rhythm of my heartbeat,
And you'll get just what I mean.
Refrain:
Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you
Just one look at you
My heart grew tipsy in you
You and you alone
Bring out the Gypsy in me
I love all, the many charms about you
Above all, I want my arms about you
Don't you be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you
Verse 2:
Molly:
I went about reciting,
'Here's one who'll never fall!'
But I'm afraid the writing
Is on the wall.
My nose I used to turn up
When you'd besiege my heart;
Now I completely burn up
When you're slow to start
I'm afraid you'll have to take the consequences;
You upset the apple cart.
Refrain 2:
Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you
In your arms I find love so delectable, dear,
I'm afraid it isn't quite so respectable, dear,
But hang it!
Come on, let's glorify love!
Ding dang it!
You'll shout 'Encore!' if I love,
Dont' be a naughty papa,
Come to baby - come to baby - do!
My sweet embraceable you.
Encore refrain:
Danny:
Dear lady,
My silk- and-lace-able you;
Dear lady,
Be my embraceable you,
You're the only one I love, yes, verily so!
Molly:
I'll try not
To be so formal my dear.
Danny:
Am I not
A man who's normal, my dear?
There's just one way to cheer me;
Come to papa, come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you
Unused refrain:
Molly:
You call me
Your sweet embraceable you;
You call me
Your irreplaceable you.
When you talk that way, it's so delectable, dear,
I'm afraid it isn't quite respectable, dear.
When you, sir,
Act so deliriously,
Then who, sir,
Could take you seriously?
There's no one I'm more fond of,
But I dont' see any hurry to
Be your embraceable you.
