With A Song In My Heart

Dinah Washington · Other Songs - Dinah Washington

Though I know that we meet every night

And we couldn't have change since the last time

To my joy and delight

It's a new kind of love at first sight



Though it's you and it's I, all the time

Every meeting's a marvelous pastime

You're increasingly sweet

So whenever we happened to meet, I greet you



With a song in my heart

I behold your adorable face

Just a song at the start

But it soon is a hymn to your grace



When the music swells, I'm touching your hand

It tells that you're standing near

And at the sound of your voice

Heaven opens his portals to me



Can I help but rejoice

That a song such as ours came to be?

But I always knew

I would live life through, with a song in my heart for you



Oh, the moon's not a moon for a night

And these stars will not twinkle and fade out

And the words in my ears

Will resound for the rest of my years



In the morning, I find with delight

Not a note of our music is played out

It will be just as sweet

And an air that I'll live to repeat, I greet you



With a song in my heart

I behold your adorable face

Just a song at the start

But it soon is a hymn to your grace



When the music swells, I'm touching your hand

It tells that you're standing near

And at the sound of your voice

Heaven opens his portals to me



Can I help but rejoice

That a song such as ours came to be?

But I always knew

I would live life through, with a song in my heart for you
