Verse:
My baby's eyes are blue, as blue as summer skies,
My baby's hair is golden hued, the kind I idolize,
And when my baby's near, I'm happy all the while,
For there is nothing in this world just like my babby's smile.
 
Chorus:
For When My Baby Smiles At Me,
My heart goes roaming to paradise,
And When My Baby Smiles At Me,
Theres such a wonderful light in her eyes,
The kind of light that means just love,
The kind of love that brings sweet harmony,
I sigh, I cry, It's just a glimpse of Heaven,
When My Baby Smiles At Me.
