Louise (Chevalier 1929)

verse:
Wonderful! Oh it's wonderful
To be in love with you.
Beautiful, you're so beautiful,
You haunt me all day through.
chorus:
Every little breeze seems to whisper "Louise."
Birds in the trees seem to twitter "Louise."
Each little rose tells me it knows I love you.(love you)
Every little beat that I feel in my heart
Seems to repeat what I felt at the start.
Each little sigh tells me that I adore you, Louise.
Just to see and hear you is joy I never knew,
But to be so near you thrills me through and through.
Anyone can see why I wanted your kiss.
It had to be, but the wonder is this:
Can it be true, someone like you
Could love me, Louise.

debut film, Paramount's "Innocents of Paris."
The song became a smash hit, and so did the singer.
