I LOOK AT YOU
(Jessie Mae Robinson)


Buddy Clark - 1941
Rita Rio & Her Mistresses of Rhythm (vocal: Alan Ladd) - 1941





I look at you and a trumpet plays so sweet
I look at you and a drum begins to beat
I touch your hand and the whole darn band begins to play
Then my old poor heart starts into swing and sway

A saxophone moans when you leave me, dear
A tinkling piano plays when you come near
You are melody and harmony that thrills me through and through
There's music in my heart when I look at you

(Orchestral Interlude)

You are melody and harmony that thrills me through and through
There's music in my heart when I look at you
