I touch your hand and my arms grow strong.
Like a pair of birds that burst in song.
My eyes look down at your lovely face
And I hold the world in my embrace.
Refrain:
Younger than springtime are you.
Softer than starlight are you.
Warmer than winds of June
Are the gentle lips you gave me.
Gayer than laughter are you.
Sweeter than music are you.
Angel and lover heaven and earth
Are you to me.
And when you youth and joy invade my arms
And fill my heart as now they do, then
Younger than springtime am I.
Gayer than laughter am I.
Angel and lover, heaven and earth
am I with you.
