Lovely to Look At by Jerome Kern Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Clothes must play a part
To light an eye, to win a heart;
They say a gown can almost speak
If it is chic
Should you select the right effect
You cannot miss
You may be sure
He will tell you this

(Chorus)
Lovely to look at
Delightful to know and heaven to kiss
A combination like this
Is quite my most impossible scheme come true
Imagine finding a boy like you!
You're lovely to look at
It's thrilling to hold you terribly tight
For we're together, the moon is new
And oh, it's lovely to look at you tonight!
(Verse 2)
What appeals to me
Is just your charm and dignity
Not what you wear
But just an air, of great repose
You are quite perfect from your head down to your toes
Both night and day
I am moved to say

(Chorus)
Lovely to look at
Delightful to know and heaven to kiss
A combination like this
Is quite my most impossible scheme come true
Imagine finding a boy like you!
You're lovely to look at
It's thrilling to hold you terribly tight
For we're together, the moon is new
And oh, it's lovely to look at you tonight!
