You Are Beautiful (From 'Flower Drum Song')

You Are Beautiful (From 'Flower Drum Song') - Original London Cast

Along the hwang ho valley

Where young men walk and dream

A flower boat with singing girls

Came drifting down the stream

I saw the face of only one come

Drifting down the stream

You are beautiful small and shy

You are the girl whose eyes met mine

Just as your boat sailed by

This i know of you nothing more

You are the girl whose eyes met mine

Passing the river shore

You are the girl whose laugh i heard

Silver and soft and bright

Soft as the fall of lotus leaves

Brushing the air of night

While your flower boat sailed away

Gently your eyes looked back on mine

Clearly you heard me say

You are the girl i will love some day

You are the girl whose laugh i heard

Silver and soft and bright

Soft as the fall of lotus leaves

Brushing the air of night

While your flower boat sailed away

Gently your eyes looked back on mine

Clearly you heard me say

You are the girl i will love some day
