The shadow of your smile
When you are gone
Will color all my dreams
And it light the dawn
Look into my eyes, my love, and see
All the lovely things, you are, to me
Our wistful little star
Was far, far too high
A teardrop kissed your lips
And so, and so did I
Now when I remember spring
Every little lovely thing
I will be remembering
The shadow of your smile
Your lovely smile
