| Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing from Love is a Many-Splendored Thing 1955 Music by Sammy Fain Lyric by Paul Webster I walked along the streets of Hong Kong town, up and down, up and down. I met a little girl in Hong Kong town And I said can you tell me please, Where's that love I've never found. Unravel me this riddle. What is love, what can it be. And in her eyes were butterflies As she replied to me, Love is a many-splendored thing. It's the April rose that only grows In the early spring. Love is nature's way of giving A reason to be living-- The golden crown that makes a man a king. Once on a high and windy hill In the morning mist two lovers kissed And the world stood still. Then your fingers touched my silent heart And taught it how to sing! Yes, true love's, a many-spendored thing. |
