"Let's Fall In Love" is a song written by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler and published in 1933. The major hit at the time of introduction was by Eddy Duchin. It was originally written in C major with a "Moderately Bright" tempo marking. As a jazz standard, it's usually played with a medium swing beat.
I have a feeling, it's a feeling,
I'm concealing, I don't know why
It's just a mental, incidental, sentimental alibi
But I adore you
So strong for you
Why go on stalling
I am falling
Our love is calling
Why be shy?
Let's close our eyes and make our own paradise
Little we know of it, still we can try
To make a go of it
We might have been meant for each other
To be or not be
Let our hearts discover
We might have been meant for each other
To be or not be
Let our hearts discover
The film It Should Happen to You (1954) uses the song as the central love theme between Jack Lemmon and Judy Holliday, who sing it several times interspersed with dialogue, and hum it together at the end.
Tony Middleton and the Willows recorded their compelling uptempo doo-wop version of the song in 1957, which was released on Gone #5015.
