The very thought of you makes my heart sing
Like an April breeze on the wings of Spring
And you appear in all your splendor
My one and only love

The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms
In the hush of night while you're in my arms
I feel your lips so warm and tender
My one and only love

The touch of your hand is like heaven
A heaven that I've never known
The blush on your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me that you are my own

You fill my aching heart with such desire
Every kiss sets my soul on fire
I give myself in sweet surrender
My one and only love

As recorded by ALMA COGAN:

The very thought of you makes my heart sing
Like an April breeze on the wings of Spring
And you appear in all your splendor
My one and only love

The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms
In the hush of night when I'm in your arms
I feel your lips so warm and tender
My one and only love

The touch of your hand is like heaven
A heaven that I've never known
The blush on your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me you're my own

You fill my eager heart with such desire
Every kiss you give sets my heart on fire
I give myself in sweet surrender
My one and only love

You are my only love
