As recorded by JOHNNIE JOHNSTON
with Paul Baron & His Orch.
All of a sudden my heart sings
When I remember little things
The way you dance and hold me tight
The way you kiss and say goodnight
The crazy things we say and do
The fun it is to be with you
The magic thrill that's in your touch
Oh, darling, I love you so much
The secret way you press my hand
To let me know you understand
The wind and rain upon your face
The breathless world of your embrace
Your little laugh and half surprise
The starlight gleaming in your eyes
Remembering all these little things
All of a sudden my heart sings
The funny way you hold your head
The crazy things you've often said
The way your hair won't stay in place
The wind and rain upon your face
The way you hold my hand at shows
The way you wrinkle up your nose
Remembering all these little things
All of a sudden my heart sings
