With A Song In My Heart
Supremes · Sing Rodgers and Hart - The Complete Studio Recordings [2004]
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 me you're standing near
And at the sound of your voice
Heaven opens its 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
With A Song In My Heart

This recording remains a staple in their discography, demonstrating their commitment to interpreting timeless compositions with modern sensitivity.
