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!
