lyrics

Lately people are observing such a change in me
The reason is that I am happy as can be
For the joy you have brought me has taught me to see
The beauty and the happiness this world now holds for me…
There’s a light in my eye and I’m no longer shy
My happiness seems most complete.
Even when it’s not spring I hear birds start to sing
Every time we meet
There’s a warmth to my smile and I feel so worthwhile
And everything bitter is sweet
January or June all the world is in tune
Every time we meet
You can readily see the effect that you have upon me
And my thorough detection tells me it’s your affection
Darling I love you so and I’m lucky I know
To walk with you down life’s street.
Just the mere thought of you makes me look forward to
Every time we meet.
