YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME
(Battle / Byron)

as recorded by Maxine Sullivan
with John Kirby & his Orchestra
January 20th 1941 New York


You mean so much to me,
I'll never let you go.
No love like this
Ever could miss
Touching the soul.

You mean so much to me,
Don't let a word or soul
'Cause such a rift,
Two hearts would drift
Far from their goal.

Should we let our plans and dreams
Stumble, crumble?
Should we let our hopes and dreams
Shatter, scatter?

You mean so much to me;
If ever you should go,
My heart would chill,
Never to thrill,
You mean so much to me!

You mean so much to me,
Don't let a word or soul
'Cause such a rift,
Two hearts would drift
Far from their goal.

Should we let our plans and dreams
Stumble, crumble?
Should we let our hopes and dreams
Shatter, scatter?

You mean so much to me;
If ever you should go,
My heart would chill,
Never to thrill,
You mean so much to me,
You mean so much to me!
