(Lyrics)
You are the promised kiss of spring time
That makes the lonely winter seem long
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the blink of a lovely song
You are the angel glow that lights a star
The dearest things I know are what you are
Someday my happy arms will hold you
And someday I'll know that moment divine
When all the things you are are mine
