When I need some affection you're not there*
I close my eyes and use my recollection,
And in one moment there's my fav'rite scene,
Taken from the place where I keep my dreams,
In my heart, in my heart.
It's a lovely lovely lovely lovely thing to see,
The picture in the birthday wallet that you gave to me.
But a man can lose a photograph, so just in case,
I keep your portrait close to me in a special place,
In my heart, in my heart, in my heart, in my heart,
In my heart. Hey, hey, in my heart, in my heart. Hey
