Lyrics

  1. Just like the roses stealing
    Into the May, some sunny day
    Love comes to me appealing
    That’s why my heart seems to say

Chorus:
I want you to want me
To want you to want me
Every day I want you more and more
I want you to take me
I want you to make me
Love you like I never loved before
All of my dreams, my schemes are just for you
All of my love I hold in store for you
A kiss to remember, in May or December
Should the skies forget dear, to be blue
And all the day long I’ll be singing a song
I want you to want me to want you

  1. Days when the sunshine’s gleaming
    For you I pine, sunshine of mine
    Nights when the moonlight’s beaming
    I want you, lovelight divine

Sung by Laurence Rubenstein:
