A Room With A View
Julie London · Other Songs - Julie London
Of wonderful you, my next door dream
â??Cause youâ??re the one and only one my heart really adores
And Iâ??m so glad my window pane is just opposite yours
It isnâ??t the moon way up in heaven above
It isnâ??t the stars Iâ??m dreaming of
Iâ??m only looking forward to the time that Iâ??ll be sharing with you
A heaven for two
A room with a view
