I touch your hands and my heart goes strong

"Younger than springtime, are you"

I touch your hands and my heart goes strong
Like a pair of birds that burst with song
My eyes look down at your lovely face
And I hold a world in my embrace

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,
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 your 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.

Heaven and Earth,
Are you to me

And when your 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...
