Venus, My Shining Love
Composer(s): George M. Cohan
Performer(s): Harry Leighton
Most ev'ryone has a sweetheart
With beautiful eyes that shine
I'm not acquainted with your love
But you're well acquainted with mine
Excelling all other ladles
Fairer than any by far
You must admit that the brightest of all
Is Venus, my shining star
Venus, beautiful Venus, how bright you shine
None shall e'er come between us, sweet Venus mine
None as bright as my darling so far up above
Venus, my beautiful Venus, my shining love
Some say true love ne'er runs smoothly
But with them I disagree
Not a cross word has been uttered
'Twixt Venus, my loved one, and me
Leading my star to the altar
Was my most beautiful dream
When I compare her with Saturn or Mars
Like darkness to her they seem
Venus, beautiful Venus, how bright you shine
None shall e'er come between us, sweet Venus mine
None as bright as my darling so far up above
Venus, my beautiful Venus, my shining love
