1951 version
-------------------------------
< slow instrumental opening >
Hello, young lovers, whoever you are,
I hope your troubles are few,
All my good wishes go with you tonight,
I`ve been in love like you.
Be brave, young lovers, and follow your star,
Be brave, an` faithful, an` true,
Cling very close to each other tonight,
I`ve been in love like you.
I know how it feels,
To have wings on your heels,
And to fly down the street in a trance!
You fly down the street,
On a chance that you`ll meet,
And you meet, not really by chance.
Don`t cry, young lovers, whatever you do,
Don`t cry because I`m alone,
All of my memories are happy tonight,
I`ve had a love of my own.
I`ve had a love of my own like yours,
I`ve had a love of my own!
< instrumental verse >
I`ve had a love of my own like yours,
I`ve had a love of my own!
