[Verse 1] Though I know that we meet ev’ry night
And we couldn’t have changed since the last time,
To my joy and delight, it’s a new kind of love at first sight.
Though it’s you and it’s I all the time,
Ev’ry meeting’s a marvelous pastime.
You’re increasingly sweet,
So whenever we happen to meet I greet you .

[Refrain] With a song in my heart I behold your adorable face.
Just a song at the start, but it soon is a hymn to your grace.
When the music swells I’m touching your hand;
It tells that you’re standing near, and at the sound of your voice
Heaven opens its portals to me.
Can I help but rejoice that a song such as ours came to be?
But I always knew I would live life through
With a song in my heart for you.

[Verse 2}: Oh, the moon’s not a moon for a night
And these stars will not twinkle and fade out.
And the words in my ears will resound for the rest of my years.
In the morning I’ll find with delight
Not a note of our music is played out.
It will be just as sweet, and an air that I’ll live to repeat:
I greet you [Repeat Refrain]
