Paradise in Waltz Time 1936

'Tis Spring
and Vienna is throbbing
with joy and delight,
the strings send a glorious Viennese waltz
thru the night
'Tis here I belong
where the Danube goes rippling along,
For I seem to feel
that this lovely adventure is really

Paradise in waltz time,
Isn't it enchanting
How the music lifts me to the skies,
While you're clinging,
you tremble to strains that resemble
the rhythm our hearts improvise.
Blessfully we're swaying,
why are we delaying
ev'rything you're saying with your eyes
'mid the whirl of gaiety and wine,
Heaven's own design,
Made our hearts combine.
We found all this wonderful divine
in a little waltz dream for two
So I call this wonderland divine,
Paradise in waltz time with you.

Paradise in waltz time,
Isn't it enchanting
How the music lifts me to the skies,
While you're clinging,
you tremble to strains that resemble
the rhythm our hearts improvise.
Blessfully we're swaying,
why are we delaying
ev'rything you're saying with your eyes
'mid the whirl of gaiety and wine,
Heaven's own design,
Made our hearts combine.
We found all this wonderful divine
in a little waltz dream for two
So I call this wonderland divine,
Paradise in waltz time with you.
