The Loveliness Of You 1937

You have such a lovely way about you
you come under the heading of art;
Got a chorus of nice things to say about you;
where shall I begin,
how shall I start?

The beam in your eyes
the smile on your face
the touch of your hand
the thrill of your embrace,
darling even heaven
never could replace
the loveliness of you.
The warmth of your lips
the way that they cling
the sound of your voice
it's like a breath of Spring;
darling, what's the theme
of ev'ry song I ever sing?
The loveliness of you.
When we're cheek to cheeking
words may fail me it is true,
but unaccustomed as I am
to public speaking
I'll tell the world
all about you.
Your charm and your grace
you dance so divine
the joy that I know
to know that you are mine,
I'd need a million phrases
to properly define
the heaven aboveliness
the loveliness of you.
