Why is my heart so light?

Why are the stars so bright?

Why is the sky so blue

Since the hour I met you?



Flowers are smiling bright;

Smiling for our delight

Smiling so tenderly

For the world -- you and me



I know why the world is smiling;

Smiling so tenderly...

It hears the same old story,

Through all eternity...



Love -- this is my song;

Here is a song -- a senerade -- to you

The world cannot be wrong

If, in this world, there's you



I care not what the world may say;

Without your love, there is no day

So love -- this is my song;

Here is a song -- a serenade -- to you



I care not what the world may say;

Without your love, there is no day

So love -- this is my song

Here is a song -- a serenade -- to you
