YOUNGER THAN SPRINGTIME
Hammerstein / Rodgers
I touch your hands and my heart goes strong
Like a pair of birds that burst with song
My eyes look down at your lovely face
And I hold a world in my embrace
Younger than springtime, are you
Softer than starlight, are you
Warmer than winds of June
Are the gentle lips you gave me
Gayer than laughter are you
Sweeter than music are you
Angel and lover
Heaven and earth
Are you to me
And when your youth
And joy invade my arms
And fill my heart
As now they do
Then younger than springtime am I
Gayer than laughter am I
Angel and lover
Heaven and earth
Am I with you
Then younger than springtime am I
Gayer than laughter am I
Angel and lover
Heaven and earth
Am I with you
