Watching The Stars 1937

When ev'ry beacon up in heaven
sends a message
that the night is clear,
I fix my glance upon the heavens
for I feel it is my duty, dear:
While you are in slumberland
I want you to understand....

I'm watching the stars
that keep watching over you,
And pray that ev'ry little beam
makes your ev'ry dream come true.
I'm watching the stars
and I tell each one above
that you're the one that I adore,
That I'm living for your love
while all the world
is fast asleep,
I stay awake
and keep an eye upon the sky.
While all the world
is counting sheep
I'm counting kisses
we'll be sharing by and by
I'm watching the stars
that keep watching over you
and pray that ev'ry little beam
makes your ev'ry dream come true.

I'm watching the stars
that keep watching over you,
And pray that ev'ry little beam
makes your ev'ry dream come true.
I'm watching the stars
and I tell each one above
that you're the one that I adore,
That I'm living for your love
while all the world
is fast asleep,
I stay awake
and keep an eye upon the sky.
While all the world
is counting sheep
I'm counting kisses
we'll be sharing by and by
I'm watching the stars
that keep watching over you
and pray that ev'ry little beam
makes your ev'ry dream come true.
