THE SHADOW OF YOUR SMILE
Love Theme from "The Sandpiper"
(Music by Johnny Mandel / Lyrics by Paul Francis Webster, 1965) 

Perry Como
Shirley Bassey


One day we walked along the sand 
one day in early spring . . . 
You held a piper in your hand 
to mend it's broken wing 
Now, I'll remember many a day 
an' many a lonely mile 
The echo of a piper's song 
an' the shadow of a smile! 

The shadow of your smile 
when you are gone . . . 
will color all my dreams 
and light the dawn . . . 
Look into my eyes, my love, and see 
all the lovely things you are . . . you are to me! 

Our wistful little star 
was far too high . . . 
A teardrop kissed your lips 
and so did I . . . 
Now, when I remember spring, 
all the joy that love can bring . . . 
I will be remembering, 
the shadow of your smile! 

(instrumental break)

Now, when I remember spring, 
all the joy that love can bring . . . 
I will be remembering, 
the shadow of your smile!
