Everything's in rhythm with my heart
The flowers that grow and the breezes that flow
Seem to grow with the flow of my song
And the song I sing's in rhythm with my heart
Every creature seems to take a part
The birds in the sky keep in time when they fly
Way up high as they migrate in Spring
Even Spring begins in rhythm with my heart
Makes no difference where I go, on land or on sea
All hearts are dancing with me, they understand
Everyone's in tempo, even children at play
The world is happy and gay, it's grand
Everything's in rhythm with my heart
The rhythm is sweet, even crowds on the street
Move their feet to the beat of my song
Everything's in rhythm with my heart
(Orchestral Break)
Makes no difference where I go, on land or on sea
All hearts are dancing with me, they understand
Everyone's in tempo, even children at play
The world is happy and gay, it's grand
Everything's in rhythm with my heart
The rhythm is sweet, even crowds on the street
Move their feet to the beat of my song
Everything's in rhythm with my heart

As rec by Jessie Matthews 1935
Everything's in rhythm with my heart,
The flowers that grow
And the breezes that blow
Seem to go with the flow
Of my song,
And the song I sing's in rhythm with my heart.
Every creature seems to take a part,
The birds in the sky
Keep in time when they fly
Way up high,
As the migrate in Spring;
Even Spring begins in rhythm with my heart.
Makes no difference where I go, on land or on sea,
All hearts are dancing with me,
They understand.
Everyone's in tempo, even children at play,
The world is happy and gay,
It's grand!
Everything's in rhythm with my heart,
The rhythm is sweet,
Even throngs on the street
Move their feet to the beat
Of my song;
Everything's in rhythm with my heart!
Makes no difference where I go, on land or on sea,
All hearts are dancing with me,
They understand.
Everyone's in tempo, even children at play,
The world is happy and gay,
It's grand!
Everything's in rhythm with my heart,
The rhythm is sweet,
Even throngs on the street
Move their feet to the beat
Of my song;
Everything's in rhythm with my heart!
