You Made Me Love You (I Didn’t Want To Do It) – Judy Garland

Dear, Mister Gable
I am writing this to you
And I hope that you will read it
So you know
My heart beats like a hammer
And I stutter and I stammer
Every time I see you at the picture show
I guess I’m just another fan of yours
And I thought I’d write and tell you so
Oh, oh, oh

You made me love you
I didn’t wanna do it
I didn’t wanna do it
You made me love you
And 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 cause
I didn’t wanna tell you
I didn’t wanna tell you
I think your grand
That’s true
Yes I do
‘Deed I do
You know I do

I must tell you what I’m feeling
The very mention of your name
Sends my heart reeling
You know you made me Love you

Oh dear Mister Gable,
I don’t wanna bother you
I guess you got a lot of girls that tell you the same thing
If you don’t wanna read this letter well,
You don’t have to, but I just had to tell you
‘Bout the time I saw you in a cabin one night,
That was the first time I ever saw you
I knew right then you were the nicest fella in the movies
I guess it was cause you acted so… so natural like
Not like a real actor, no. 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
I had to cry a little
Cause you loved her so much, and you couldn’t have her.
Well, not until the end of the picture anyway
And then one time I saw you in person
You were going to the coconut gogo night
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, 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 home just cause you smiled at me
For being in your way
Oh, I’ll never forget it Mister Gable
Honest engine
Your my favorite actor.

I don’t care what happens
Let the whole world starve
As far as I’m concerned you’ll always be the top
‘Cause you know you made me Love you
