Bobby Darin (born Walden Robert Cassotto; May 14, 1936 – December 20, 1973) was an American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and actor in film and television. He performed jazz, pop, rock and roll, folk, swing, and country music.

He started his career as a songwriter for Connie Francis. He recorded his first million-selling single, "Splish Splash", in 1958. This was followed by "Dream Lover", "Mack the Knife", and "Beyond the Sea", which brought him worldwide fame. In 1962 he won a Golden Globe Award for his first film, Come September, co-starring his first wife, Sandra Dee.

During the 1960s he became more politically active and worked on Robert F. Kennedy's Democratic presidential campaign. He was present on the night of June 4/5, 1968, at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles at the time of Kennedy's assassination. During the same year, he discovered he had been raised by his grandmother, not his mother, and that the girl he thought was his sister was actually his mother. These events deeply affected Darin and sent him into a long period of seclusion.

Although he made a successful comeback (in television) his health was beginning to fail, as he had always expected following bouts of rheumatic fever in childhood. This knowledge of his vulnerability had always spurred him on to use his musical talent while still young. He died at the age of 37 following a heart operation in Los Angeles.

Your magic hands … your lovin' eyes

Your kissable lips

Makes my heart realize

I'm in love … I'm in love

And I know it's true

For … who-o-o wouldn't fall for irresistible you.

WelI … I don't know what you got

But it's got me and baby I'm hooked

Like a fish in the sea

You make angles call from above

You could make the Devil fall in love

An-a … who-o-o wouldn't fall for irresistible you.

Ohhh, come on …

Lets dance awhile … I wanna talk …

I wanna talk to you child …

Been blessed …

So much … too much …

There is a wonder of love in your touch.

Ah, don't you fret …

Don't you worry about me 'cause I never forget …

How much you mean to me

I love you … I love you

My whole life through

Tell me … who-o-o wouldn't fall for irresistible you.

Lets twist awhile …

Don't you ever fret …

Don't you worry about me I never forget …

How much you mean to me

I love you … I love you

My whole life through

But tell me … who-o-o wouldn't fall for irresistible you.
