Verse:

My baby's eyes are blue, as blue as summer skies,

My baby's hair is golden hued, the kind I idolize,

And when my baby's near, I'm happy all the while,

For there is nothing in this world just like my babby's smile.

 

Chorus:

For When My Baby Smiles At Me,

My heart goes roaming to paradise,

And When My Baby Smiles At Me,

Theres such a wonderful light in her eyes,

The kind of light that means just love,

The kind of love that brings sweet harmony,

I sigh, I cry, It's just a glimpse of Heaven,

When My Baby Smiles At Me.
