The sheet music:
Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
All my days were lonely ones
Till you came along
Now my days are happy ones
You filled my life with song
Chorus
Because of you there’s a song in my heart
Because of you my romance had its start
Because of you the sun will shine
The moon and stars will say you’re mine
Forever and never to part
I only live for your love and your kiss
It’s paradise to be near you like this
Because of you my life is now worthwhile
And I can smile because of you
