It's Always You
Bing Crosby
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Whenever it's early twilight, I watch till a star breaks through. Funny, it's not a star I see, It's always you! Whenever I roam through roses, And lately I often do, Funny, it's not a rose I touch, It's always you! If a breeze caresses me, It's really you strolling by. If I hear a melody, It's merely the way you sigh. Wherever you are you're near me, You dare me to be untrue. Funny, each time I fall in love, It's always you!
