i do adore her

Singer:belafonte, harry

when shadows fall and stars appear

a pain i feel i cannot bear

if i could relive that faithful day

i would not turn my love away

i reveal how i do adore her

hang my heart on my sleeve just for her

all my love thru-out life assure her

if this moment i could amour her. when i think of her tender lips

gentle touch of her finger-tips

reminisce on her eyes so fair

moonlight soft on her downy hair

i reveal how i do adore her

hang my heart on my sleeve just for her

all my love thru-out life assure her

if this moment i could amour her. if some day i should see her smile

hold her hand and me heart beguile

feel her warmth in her earnest prayer

darling shield me from all despair

i reveal how i do adore her

hang my heart on my sleeve just for her

all my love thru-out life assure her

if this moment i could amour her. now i'm standing alone and sad

thinkin' upon the joys i've had

time makes fools of men they say

take me back to that distant day

i reveal how i do adore her

hang my heart on my sleeve just for her

all my love thru-out life assure her

if this moment i could amour her
