Until I met you, I never knew
What life could hold for me
Until I met you, and then I knew
How sweet a song could be
I drifted along my lonely way
With never a thought of love
Until I met you, and then I knew
You loved me my lovely white dove
I saw you, I met you, I loved you then
The spell of a moment divine
I want you, I need you, I love you now
Since your eyes have looked in mine
To have you, to hold you, to keep you fast
Forever I ask nothing more
If I have your lovе I'm content at last
For you are the onе I adore
In your heart, my sweet, my dove
Let me build my only home
In the kingdom of your love
Tell me I shall reign alone
In the heaven of your arms
Is the peace of heav'n above
In the spell of your loveliness I find my happiness
Sweet white dove
In the heaven of your arms
Is the peace of heav'n above
In the spell of your loveliness I find my happiness
Sweet white dove
