Lyrics
I wrote a poem in classic style
I wrote it with my tongue in my cheek
And my lips in a smile
But of late my poem has meaning so new
For, to my surprise
It suddenly applies to my darling, to you
Refrain:
Were thine that special face
The face which fills my dreaming
Were thine the rhythm’d grace
Were thine the form so lithe and slender
Were thine the arms, so warm, so tender
Were thine the kiss divine
Were thine the love for me
The love which fills my dreaming
When all these charms are thine
Then you’ll be mine, all mine
Sung by Laurence Rubenstein:
