MOMENT I SAW YOU, THE
Manning Sherwin (m) Harold Purcell (l)  1945

as rec by Steve Conway w The Jack Byfield Orch  1945


The moment I saw you
I heard a skylark sing;
November was April
And down the street came Spring!

The roof tops were suddenly gleaming,
A star fell and lay at our feet, my sweet.

The moment I saw you
I swear the time stood still.
I still feel that magic,
I know I always will!

No word passed;
I knew it was love at last
At the moment I saw you!

The moment I saw you
I swear the time stood still.
I still feel that magic,
I know I always will!

No word passed;
I knew it was love at last
At the moment I saw you!
