As recorded by THE SAVOY HOTEL ORPHEANS, Dir. Carroll Gibbons &
Howard Jacobs, vocal by Jack Plant, recorded 12th January 1932:
I love you,
That's what my heart is saying
While every breeze is playing
Our Cuban love song
I love you,
For all the joys you brought me
That lovely night you taught me
Our Cuban love song
One melody will always thrill my heart
One kiss will cheer me when we're far apart
I love you
With such a tender passion
And only you could fashion
Our Cuban love song

As recorded by RUTH ETTING:
Life is filled with glory
Now that I know this love was meant to be
Each kiss tells the story
While my heart rings and sings our melody, dear
I love you
That's what my heart is saying
While every breeze is playing
Our Cuban love song
I love you
For all the joy you brought me
The lovely night you taught me
Our Cuban love song
One melody will always thrill my heart
One kiss will cheer me when we're far apart
I love you
With such a tender passion
And only you could fashion
Our Cuban love song
I love you
That's what my heart is saying
While every breeze is playing
Our Cuban love song
I love you
For all the joy you brought me
The lovely night you taught me
Our Cuban love song
One melody will always thrill my heart
One kiss will cheer me when we're far, far apart
I love you
With such a tender passion
And only you could fashion
Our Cuban love song
