Lyrics
We used to spend the spring together
Before we learned to walk
We used to laugh and sing together
Before we learned how to talk
With no reason for the season
Spring would end as it would start
Now the season has a reason
And there’s springtime in my heart
Refrain
The most beautiful girl in the world
Picks my ties out, eats my candy
Drinks my brandy
The most beautiful girl in the world
The most beautiful star in the world
Isn’t Garbo, Isn’t Dietrich
But the sweet trick
Who can make me believe it’s a beautiful world
Social not a bit, nat’ral kind of wit
She’d shine anywhere
And she hasn’t got platinum hair
The most beautiful house in the world
Has a mortgage what do I care
It’s goodbye care
When my slippers are next to the ones that belong
To the one and only beautiful girl in the world
