It Amazes Me

It Amazes Me
music by Cy Coleman (left)
lyric by Carolyn Leigh (right)

My height, just average.
My weight, just average.
My IQ is like you'd estimate: just average.
But evidently she does not agree.
Consequently, if I seem at sea...

It amazes me, it simply amazes me.
What she sees in me dazzles me, dazes me.
That I've learned to clip my wings and soften my ways,
These are ordinary things unworthy of praise.

Yet, she praises my just knowing I try for, when so many would, if they could,
Die for her.

I'm the one who's worthy, wise and nothing much fazes me,
But to see me in her eyes, it just amazes me...
