I hear music when I look at you
A beautiful theme of every dream
I ever knew
Down deep in my heart I hear it
play
I can feel it start, then it
melts away
I hear music when I touch your
hand
A beautiful melody from some
enchanted land
Down deep in my heart, I hear it
say
"Is this the day?"
I alone have heard this lovely
strain
I alone have heard this glad
refrain
Must it be forever inside of me?
Why can't I let it go? Why can't
I let you know?
Why can't I let you know the
song my heart would sing?
Beautiful rhapsody of love and
youth and spring
The music is sweet, and the
words are true
The song is you
<instrumental>
Why can't I let you know the
song my heart would sing?
That beautiful rhapsody of love
and youth and spring
The music is sweet, and the
words are true
The song is you
