BECAUSE I WORSHIP YOU

(Arthur Freed)


As recorded by:

V. Maurice Elwin
Recorded 5th February 1932



Because I worship you
I dream each long night through
Inside a world for two
And with each happy morn
I feel a song is born
Because I worship you
I’ll never doubt or fear
My heart is with you dear
No matter what you do
I’ll always understand
And lend a helping hand
Because I worship you 

Nights may be your veil of fear
But taken by a friend
Count on me through all the years
Until our story ends
Whatever fate may bring
When youth has had its fling
We’ll keep our love anew
I’ll still be with you then
To kiss your lips again
Because I worship you.
