Lyrics See Your Face Before Me - Carmen McRae, Ernie Wilkins

See Your Face Before Me

In a world of glitter and glow
In a world of tinsel and show
The unreal from the real thing is hard to know
I discovered somebody who
Could be truly worthy and true
Yes, I met my ideal thing when I met you
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
