It's Always You
Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby
I watch till a star breaks through.
Funny, it's not a star I see,
It's always you!
Whenever I roam through roses,
And lately I often do,
Funny, it's not a rose I touch,
It's always you!
If a breeze caresses me,
It's really you strolling by.
If I hear a melody,
It's merely the way you sigh.
Wherever you are you're near me,
You dare me to be untrue.
Funny, each time I fall in love,
It's always you!
