Lyric

Why is my heart so light?Why are the stars so bright?Why is the sky so blueSince the hour I met you?
Flowers are smiling brightSmiling for our delightSmiling so tenderlyFor the world, you and me
I know why the world is smilingSmiling so tenderlyIt’s just the same old storyThrough all eternity
Love, this is my songHere is a song, a serenade to youThe world cannot be wrongIf in this world there’s you
I care not what the world may sayWithout your love, there is no daySo love, this is my songHere is a song, a serenade to you
I care not what the world may sayWithout your love, there is no daySo love, this is my songHere is a song, a serenade to you
