Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, soprano (1993)
- The Way You Look Tonight (Fields & Kern)

The Way You Look Tonight
Movie: Swing Time (1936)
Music: Jerome Kern
Words: Dorothy Fields

Some day
When I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight

Oh, but you're lovely
With your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight

With each word your tenderness grows
Tearing my fear apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart

Lovely
Never, never change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it 'cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight

With each word your tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart

Lovely
Never, never change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it 'cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight

Just the way you look tonight
