Chante-moi, darling, sing to me
Sing to me, darling, sing to me
Chante-moi, while your arms cling to me

Won? t you please put your heart in a song?
Won't you please put your heart in a song?
Every sigh is a rhapsody

When you sigh:? Je vous aime, chérie!?
When you sigh: I love you, darling!
This is heaven you bring to me

Chant-moi, sing to me, chant-moi?
Sing to me, sing to me, sing to me?
The angels stop singing when you raise your voice
The angels stop singing when you raise your voice
The angels above?
The angels above?
They listen and then just like me they rejoice
They listen and then just like me they rejoice
When you sing of love?
When you sing of love?
Chante-moi, darling, sing to me
Sing to me, darling, sing to me
Chante-moi, while your arms cling to me
Sing to me, while your arms cling to me
I have waited so long, so long?
I have waited so long, so long?
Won? t you please put your heart in a song?
Won't you please put your heart in a song?
Every sigh is a rhapsody
Every sigh is a rhapsody
When you sigh:? Je vous aime, chérie!?
When you sigh: I love you, darling!
This is heaven you bring to me
This is heaven you bring to me
Chante-moi, sing to me chante-moi?
Sing to me, sing to me, sing to me?
