I loved the charming Tommy & Tuppence series, each episode had an interesting mystery and Francesca Annis & James Warwick were just lovely.
How on earth did you find this? How perfectly delightful...just like the series.
Wow! Who knew, indeed! Thanks for taking the time to post this.
Thank you! :)
Lyrics
Him -
I’m your partner in crime
Used to be good but since I met you
Can’t stop stealing a kiss or two
From you
Her -
And you’re my partner in crime
Led me astray and I just let you
Now we’re two of a kind
Having a marvellous time
Him -
I’ve got this awful criminal habit
I keep taking your hand
You seem glad when I grab it
Her -
Which is deplorable
Him -
But so adorable
Both -
And though crime doesn’t pay
Try as I may I can’t forget you
Guess who has stolen my heart
It was my partner in crime
Him -
It isn’t just a case of who done it
Both -
Both of us are to blame
Him -
I’m the one who begun it
But is a-kissable
Her -
It was permissible
Both -
And though crime doesn’t pay
Try as I may I can’t forget you
Guess who has stolen my heart
It was my partner in crime
Instrumental break
Him -
I’ve got this awful criminal habit
I keep taking your hand
You seem glad when I grab it
Her -
Which is deplorable
Him -
But so adorable
Both -
And though crime doesn’t pay
Try as I may I can’t forget you
Guess who has stolen my heart
It was my partner in crime
Him -
It isn’t just a case of who done it
Both -
Both of us are to blame
Him -
I’m the one who begun it
But is a-kissable
Her -
It was permissible
Both -
Darling, suddenly I’m
Head over heels
And soon I bet you
Sweetheart
I’ll start
Finding an alibi
Settling down with my
Loveable partner in crime!

How old is this song. Assumed it was some obscure 1920's song but now, I'm not so sure...?
Aera - no, just 1920s style. Music composed by Joseph Horovitz, who was born in 1926. Lyrics attributed to a “M.Rudge”.
