As recorded by VIC DAMONE:

I have but one heart, this heart I bring you
I have but one heart to share with you
I have but one dream that I can cling to
You are the one dream I pray comes true

My darling, until I saw you, I never felt this way
And nobody else before you, ever has heard me say
You are my one love, my life I live for you
I have but one heart to give to you

(Orchestral Interlude)

Vicin'o mare, facimmo 'ammore
A core a core, pe' ce spassa
So marenare e tiro 'a rezza
Ma, p'allerezza, stongo a muri

You are my one love, my life I live for you
I have but one heart to give to you
