SAY IT WITH A KISS
Harry Warren (m) Johnny Mercer (l)   1938

Billie Holiday w Teddy Wilson & his Orch   
rec Nov 9th 1938 New York



Let me hear you say it,
Say it with a kiss!
If you mean
That look Ive seen,
Say it with a kiss!
There is wine,
Then candle shine
And music in your lips,
Music in the touch of your fingertip.

Words may not convey,
Say it with a kiss!
And your look
might speak a book
That my eyes might miss.
You don't have to know
The words to love's familiar tune,
Say it with a kiss
And say it soon!
