Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- My baby’s eyes are blue, as blue as summer skies
My baby’s hair is golden hued, the kind I idolize
And when my baby’s near, I’m happy all the while
For there is nothing in this world, just like my baby’s smile
Chorus
For when my baby smiles at me
My heart goes roaming to paradise
And when my baby smiles at me
There’s such a wonderful light in her eyes
The kind of light that means just love
The kind of love that brings sweet harmony
I sigh, I cry, it’s just a glimpse of heaven
When my baby smiles at me
- My baby’s lips are sweet, as sweet as sugar cane
And when my baby kisses me, well I just can’t explain
It seems the sun comes out, keeps shining all the while
And all the world is filled with love, just like my baby’s smile
