Heaven, Vienna mine
I'm in the spell of your charms divine
Dressed like a queen, with life so gay
You are the love of my heart today

Heaven, Vienna mine
Laughter and music and stars that shine
Wonderful city where I belong
To you I sing my song
My heart seems to beat with rapture so sweet
I walk through the town in a trance
A lady so fair, beyond all compare
Has filled me with joy and romance

Her moods and her wiles, her frowns and her smiles
Keep changing so quickly each day
No wonder I dream, her beauty supreme
Enslaves me and I must obey
And though she has countless lovers like me
I have no wish to be set free

Heaven, Vienna mine
I'm in the spell of your charms divine
Dressed like a queen, with life so gay
You are the love of my heart today

Heaven, Vienna mine
Laughter and music and stars that shine
Wonderful city where I belong
Of her I sing my song
