Too Marvelous For Words
- words by Johnny Mercer, music by Richard A. Whiting
- as recorded March 3, 1937 by Bing Crosby with the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra.
I search for phrases
To sing your praises
But there aren't any magic adjectives
To tell you all you are!
You're just too marvelous
Too marvelous for words
Like glorious, glamourous
And that old standby, amorous
It's all too wonderful
I'll never find the words
That say enough, tell enough
I mean, they just aren't swell enough
You're much too much
And just too very, very
To ever be in Webster's Dictionary
And so I'm borrowing
A love song from the birds
To tell you that you're marvelous
Too marvelous for words
