Almost Like Being In Love
music by Frederick Loewe and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner
What a day this has been
What a rare mood I'm in
Why, it's almost like being in love
There's a smile on my face
For the whole human race
Why, it's almost like being in love
All the music of life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing for me
And from the way that I feel
When the bell starts to peel
I would swear I was falling
I could swear I was falling
It's almost like being in love

Yikes... Its been since Christmas since I recorded anything with the trombone! Although a vocal, this is an up-tempo contemporary arrangement that features the trombone - enjoy!
