Once to Every Heart
GORDON JENKINS
Once to every heart
Love will find its way
Once to every lonely dreamer
Love will come to stay
Whether you are eight years old
Or even ninety-two
Someone in this world is meant
Especially for you
So when love comes your way
Fling your windows wide
Make her welcome, give her shelter,
Keep her warm inside
Hold her always near to you
And dear to you alone
Be her lover, be her friend
And you will find the rainbow's end
It always happens
Once to every heart.
