Lyrics

I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I'll give you my heart
I love you and you alone were meant to be
Please give your loving heart to me
And say, "We'll never part"
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling, I'm never lonely
Whenever you are in sight
I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling, I'm never lonely
Whenever you are in sight
I love you, I do
For sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart
I really love you, really I do
There's no one can take the place of you
I've given you my heart
