I See Your Face Before Me
Frank Sinatra
Written by Howard Dietz and Arthur Schwartz
This version did not chart but
In 1938, it was a # 12 for Guy Lombardo and a # 13 for Glen Gray
Later found on the soundtrack of the film "The Bridges of Madison County"
I see your face before me, crowding my every dream
There is your face before me, you are my only theme
It doesn't matter where you are, I can see how fair you are
I close my eyes and there you are always
If you could share the magic, yes, if you could see me, too
There would be nothing tragic in all my dreams of you
Would that my love could haunt you so
Knowing I want you so
I can't erase your beautiful face before me
Would that my love could haunt you so
Knowing I want you so
I can't erase your beautiful face before me
TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: Some versions may contain this intro:
In a world of glitter and glow
In a world of tinsel and show
The unreal from the real you lives on to know
I discovered somebody who
Could be truly worthy and true
Yes, I found my ideal thing
When I met you
