You Made Me Love You (Mr. Gable) [Broadway Melody of 1938] - Judy Garland, Victor Young

Dear Mr Gable

I am writing this to you

And I hope that you

Will read it so you’ll 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 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 you’re 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

Aw, gee, Mr Gable

I don’t wanna bother you

Guess, guess you got a lotta girls

That tell you the same thing

And if you don’t wanna read this

Well, you don’t have to But I just had to tell you about the time

I saw you in, «It Happened One Night»

That was the first time I ever saw you

And I knew right then

You were the nicest fella in the movies

I guess it was 'cause you acted so Well, so natural like

Not like a real actor at all

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

And I had to cry a little

'Cause you loved her so much

And you couldn’t have her

Not 'til the end of the picture, anyway

And then one time I saw you in person

You going to the Coconut Grove

One 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

Aw, I’ll never forget it, Mr Gable

Honest angel, you’re my favorite actor

I don’t care what happens

Let the whole world stop

As far as I’m concerned

You’ll always be the top

'Cause you know

You made me love you
