My Baby's Arms 1919 Ziegfeld Follies

I call my sweetheart "Baby"
she calls me "Baby" too
when there's anyone near us
we never let them hear us
but for embraces
I know just where my place will be:

My baby's arms
hold all my charms
my baby's eyes of blue
just seem to thrill me,
and fill me with a new sensation,
my baby's smile
there all the while;
and if she'd tell me to stay,
I'd like to snuggle away,
and dream for ever
in my baby's arms.

My baby's arms
hold all my charms
my baby's eyes of blue
just seem to thrill me,
and fill me with a new sensation,
my baby's smile
there all the while;
and if she'd tell me to stay,
I'd like to snuggle away,
and dream for ever
in my baby's arms.

It seems my own sweet baby
just loves to baby me.
Tho' we both are grown up
we refuse to own up,
she's like a mother,
how we do love each other:

My baby's arms
hold all my charms
my baby's eyes of blue
just seem to thrill me,
and fill me with a new sensation,
my baby's smile
there all the while;
and if she'd tell me to stay,
I'd like to snuggle away,
and dream for ever
in my baby's arms.

My baby's arms
hold all my charms
my baby's eyes of blue
just seem to thrill me,
and fill me with a new sensation,
my baby's smile
there all the while;
and if she'd tell me to stay,
I'd like to snuggle away,
and dream for ever
in my baby's arms.
