I touch your hands
|
And my heart grows strong,
|
Like a pair of birds
|
That burst with song.
|
My eyes look down
|
At your lovely face,
|
And I hold a world
|
In my embrace.
|
|
Younger than springtime, are you
|
Softer than starlight, are you,
|
Warmer than winds of June,
|
Are the gentle lips you gave me.
|
Gayer than laughter, are you,
|
Sweeter than music, are you,
|
Angel and lover, heaven and earth,
|
Are you to me.
|
|
And when your youth
|
And joy invade my arms,
|
And fill my heart as now they do,
|
Then younger than springtime, am I,
|
Gayer than laughter, am I,
|
Angel and lover, heaven and earth,
|
Am I with you!
|
|
And when your youth
|
And joy invade my arms,
|
And fill my heart as now they do,
|
|
Then younger than springtime, am I,
|
Gayer than laughter, am I,
|
Angel and lover, heaven and earth,
|
Am I with you
|
