about

Recorded in 1942.

lyrics

The glow of sunset in the Summer skies,
The golden flicker of the fireflies,
The gleam of lovelight in your lovely eyes;
These are the things I love.

A silver moonbeam peeping through the trees,
A bed of tulips nodding in the breeze,
The look you give in answer to my pleas;
These are the things I love.

Oh, once I thought that life was just a winter thing,
My heart was cold;
And then you came to me, and like a breath of Spring,
You turned the silver into gold.

A robin's serenade when day is through,
The babbling brook beside our rendezvous,
Your sweet voice whispering, "Darling, I love you!"
These are the things I love.
