I hear music when I look at you
A beautiful theme of ev'ry dream I ever knew
Down deep in my heart, I hear it play
I feel it start then melt away
I hear music when I touch your hand
A beautiful melody from some enchanted land
Down deep in my heart, I hear it say
Is this the day?
I alone have heard this lovely strain
I alone have heard this glad refrain
Must it be forever in side of me
Why can't I let it go?
Why can't I let you know?
Why can't I let you know the song my heart would sing?
That beautiful rhapsody of love and youth and spring
The music is sweet the words are true
The song is you
