Verse:

Maybe it was the music or a glamorous sky of blue;
Maybe it was the mood I was in, or maybe it was really you,
Really you;

Chorus:

This heart of mine
Was doing very well,
The world was fine
As far as I could tell;
And then quite suddenly I met you and I dreamed of gay amours,
At dawn I woke up singing sentimental overtures.
This heart of mine
Is gaily dancing now;
I taste the wine
Of real romancing now;
Somehow this crazy world has taken on a wonderful design,
As long as life endures, it's yours, this heart of mine.
