Verse 1:
Each little word you utter is like a melody,
Like a tuneful spoonful of music to me.
Each little smile you give me is like an April day,
I miss you ev'ry moment you're away;
Chorus:
When the moon is new,
I always make a little wish or two;
And when I want someone to tell them to, what do I do?
I page Miss Glory.
When the stars grow bright
And sprinkle all the shadows with their light;
To add a little bit of romance to a lovely night,
I page Miss Glory.
I've never seen a sunset, a rainbow in the skies,
That ever could compare with the glory of your eyes.
So, when we're apart,
And I begin to feel the teardrops start;
And when I get that empty feeling way down in my heart,
I page Miss Glory.
Verse 2 (from British sheet music):
I'll never miss the sunshine; you've got it in your smile.
Like a seventh heaven to me all the while.
Although a rose has beauty beneath a summer sky,
It must admit defeat when you pass by;
[Chorus]
