Thank You for bring this to me. The Love of My Life passed away 5 years ago after 58 years of marriage and that was one of our wonderful songs.
We saw Nat King Cole in person at a theater in our home town and it was just as beautiful. May God Bless You always for bringing me Net Hugs.
Love you all.

GOD certainly gifted Nat King Cole with a terrific singing voice and this song brings back many lovely memories I spent ballroom dancing with my loving husband. May GODS Angles continue to watch over all of you forever, is my prayer.

I grew up in NYC, and in 1948/1949 I used to go to the Brill Bldg. on Broadway and watch Nat record….had a few of his Blooper discs, but when I went to Calif. in Aug. 1949, I left them home….WRONG !!!!!…..never saw them again when I went back in 1951 with my husband… I think the Sean Hannity Show on FOX is recorded at the Brill Bldg. at present…..think it was next door to where Louis Prima used to play…can’t remember the name of that Theatre……been so many years ago….
