Music and Lyrics by Charles Chaplin for The Countess From Hong Kong 1966
This song was released as a music tie-in for The Countess From Hong Kong in 1967. Petula Clark made it a hit, and other notable vocal artists recorded it soon thereafter.
This is my song
Why is my heart so light?
Why are the stars so bright?
Why is the sky so blue
Since the hour I met you?
Flowers are smiling bright
Smiling for our delight
Smiling so tenderly
For the world, you and me
I know why the world is smiling
Smiling so tenderly
It is the same old story
True all eternity
Love, this is my song
Here is a song
A serenade to you
The world cannot be wrong
If in this world there’s you
I care not what the world may say
Without your love there is no day
So Love this is my song
Here is a song, a serenade, to you
