"It Had Better Be Tonight" lyrics

"It Had Better Be Tonight"

If you're ever gonna kiss me
It had better be tonight
While the mandolins are playing
And stars are bright

If you've anything to tell me
It had better be tonight
Or somebody else may tell me
And whisper the words just right

Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go!
Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"

Show me how in old Milano
Lovers hold each other tight
But I warn you sweet paisano
It had better be tonight

Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"


Writer(s): Henry Mancini, Johnny Mercer
