Louise
Bing & Dixie Lee Crosby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To be in love with you.
Beautiful! You're so beautiful,
You haunt me all day through.
Every little breeze seems to whisper "Louise."
Birds in the trees seem to twitter "Louise."
Each little rose
Every little beat that I feel in my heart,
Seems to repeat, What I felt from the start,
Each little sigh
Tells me that I adore you, Louise.
Just to see and hear you
Brings joy I never knew.
But to be so near you,
Thrills me through and through.
Anyone can see why I wanted your kiss,
It had to be But the wonder is this:
Can it be true,
Someone like you could love me, Louise?
Innocent! You're so innocent
And gentle as a dove.
Heaven sent! You were heaven sent,
An angel from above.
Every little breeze seems to whisper "Louise."
Birds in the trees seem to twitter "Louise."
Each little rose
Tells me it knows I love you, love you.
Every little beat that I feel in my heart,
Seems to repeat, What I felt from the start,
Each little sigh
Tells me that I adore you, Louise.
Often when I'm gloomy
And in my lonely room.
Thoughts of you come to me,
Like a sweet perfume.
Anyone can see why I wanted your kiss,
It had to be But the wonder is this:
Can it be true,
Someone like you could love me, Louise?

Someday, when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight
you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight
With each word your tenderness grows
Tearin' my fear apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart
Lovely, never, never change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
just the way you look tonight
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
It touches my foolish heart
Lovely, don't you ever change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
just the way you look tonight
Mm-mm, mm-mm
Just the way you look tonight
