Verse:
I am dreaming Dear of you,
Day by day,
Dreaming when the skies are blue,
When they're gray;
When the silv'ry moonlight gleams,
Still I wander on in dreams,
In a land of love, it seems,
Just with you.
 
Chorus:
Let me call you "Sweetheart,"
I'm in love with you.
Let me hear you whisper,
That you love me too.
Keep the lovelight glowing,
In your eyes so true.
Let me call you "Sweetheart,"
I'm in love with you.
