Lyrics
You’re the only reason for my happiness
You’re the one I’m always dreaming of
Just to show you what I mean by happiness
Let me paint a picture of my love
Chorus
As beats the ocean surf upon the sand
So beats my heart for you
For just as constantly as sea meets land
So beats my heart for you
I’ll always be true, faithful to you
Skies have been blue
Since you came in view
As beats the rhythm of a mighty band
So beats my heart for you, dear
So beats my heart for you
