My Silent Love
The Harry James Orchestra Lyrics


My love for you
Is deep and endless as the sea
Strong and mighty as a tree
My love for you

My eager heart
Keeps beating just for you alone
Since the moment it is known
My love for you
There'll be no other lips
No other eyes
No other love for me
Feeling as I do
How could there be

(And) so it will be
Far beyond eternity
Ever faithful ever true
My love for you

I reach for you like I'd reach for a star
Worshipping you from afar
Living with my silent love
I'm like a flame dying out in the rain
Only the ashes remain
Smould'ring like my silent love
How I long to tell
All the things I have planned
Still, it's wrong to tell
You would not understand
You'll go along, never dreaming I care
Loving somebody, somewhere
Leaving me my silent love
You'll go along, never dreaming I care
Loving somebody, somewhere
Leaving me my silent love

Remembering dearest Grandmother May, love you so and your dearest Daughters, blessings. Thank you so much for evoking our dearest departed beloveds, take good care

Dick Haymes was the best baritone of the big band era

@Trombonology

Love the song and this dramatic rendering, an approach at which the great James band excelled. Both Mr. James and Mr. Haymes draw everything out of this sparkling gem from Popular Song aristocrats, Dana Suesse and Edward Heyman.

@swingman5635

A favorite in my collection of the James/Haymes collaboration.

@rocketsurgeon5758

Dramatic is right, it goes a bit beyond sultry. It is so beautiful but feels like something is missing without that vinyl hiss and crackle.

@danvanlandingham3854

Billy Eckstine did a nice version of that song for National Records out in Hollywood in 1946.I believe it was at Radio Recorders.

@td3993

Masterpiece in every way.

@td3993

That distant piano bit right before "You go along never dreaming I care" always gets me. Such a terribly good tear-jerker.

@waltergray7722

Brilliant post.
Thank you for sharing.
