Judy Garland - Zing! went the strings of my heart ("Listen, darling", 1938)

IT HAUNTED ME FROM THE START

En el aniversario natal de la inolvidable Judy Garland recordamos su maravillosa interpretación de Zing! went the strings of my heart, composición de James F. Hanley que cantó en la película "Listen, darling"(1938) de Edwin L. Marin poco antes de cumplir dieciséis años y más adelante incorporó de manera repetida a su repertorio de conciertos a partir de la década de los 50.

Zing! went the strings of my heart  (lyrics)

Dear, when you smiled at me
I heard a melody
It haunted me from the start
Something inside of me
Started a symphony
Zing! went the strings of my heart

'Twas like a breath of spring
I heard a robin sing
About a nest set apart
All nature seemed to be
In perfect harmony
Zing! went the strings of my heart

Your eyes made skies seem blue again
What else could I do again?
But keep repeating through and through
"I love you, love you"

I still recall the thrill
I guess I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
I knew I loved your heaps
And you were mine for keeps
Zing! went the strings of my heart

Your eyes made skies seem blue again
What else could I do again?
But keep repeating through and through
"I love you, love you"

I still recall the thrill
I guess I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
I knew I loved your heaps
And you were mine for keeps
Zing! went the strings of my heart
