The shadow of your smile when you have gone

Will color all my dreams and light the dawn

Look into my eyes, my love, and see

All the lovely things you are to me

 

Our wistful little star, it was far too high

A teardrop kissed your lips and so, so did I

Now when I remember Spring and every little lovely thing

I will be remembering the shadow of your smile

 

<very brief instrumental>

 

Your lovely smile

 

<applause>
