(richard rodgers/lorentz hart)
Lover, when I’m near you
And I hear you speak my name
Softly in my ear you breathe a flame
Lover, when we’re dancing
Keep on glancing in my eyes
Till love’s own entrancing music dies
All of my future is in you
Your every plan I design
Promise you’ll always continue to be mine
Hey lover, please be tender
When your tender fears depart
Lover, I surrender to my heart
I say the devil is in you
And to resist you I try
But if you didn’t continue I would die
Lover, please be tender
When your tender fears depart
Lover, I surrender to my heart
What a lover
Yes, he is
Sweet lover
