Verse:
Time and again I've longed for adventure,  Something to make my heart beat the faster,
What did I long for?  I never really knew.
Finding your love I've found my adventure,  Touching your hand my heart beats the faster.
All that I want in all of the world is you.

 

Chorus:

You are the promised kiss of springtime,

That makes the lonely winter seem 1ong.
You are the breathless hush of evening,

That trembles on the brink 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 devine,

When All The Things You Are, are mine!
