You know, folks, there's a great modesty in band and singing circles
A kind of 'bashful boy at the party' attitude about programing new
Songs. The elders have it
That it isn't smart to take chances with a brand new little number
Just wet from the printers
Seems the christening is attended only by those strong
Unsilent men, known behind every bandstand as 'The Song Plugger
Seems to this avirsion in the trade,
Is based on the assumption that the popular appeal of song is in direct ratio
To the number of customers who can tag it by
Ear, at one hundred yards, on a very loud night
Well, be it so, but when you love to sing as much as I do
You're willing to take chances and be apt to grab a new song deb at
The party, and take her out on the floor and cut one up
Which is what is about to happen right now
So I want you to meet a brand new little hopeful
In town, whose name is, If Loveliness Were Music
Axel, will you do the honors?
If loveliness were music
I'd hear a symphony every time I look at you
If loveliness were music
I know your charms would be heavenly to listen to
I'd hold you near, and then I'd hear
The ringing, singing
Of themes from angels' dreams
If loveliness were music
The sight of you would fill
All the world with songs that thrill
Earth and heavens blue
Would echo songs of you
If loveliness were music
The sight of you would fill
All the world with songs that thrill
Earth and heavens blue
Would echo songs of you
