My Cup Runneth Over

Artist: Des O'Connor

Album: Best of Slow Waltz Music

Song Length: 3:00

George's Thoughts: This beautiful Waltz tune comes from the Broadway musical "I Do, I Do." The original from the musical is too fast for dancing at 34bpm. This version by Des O'Connor is far superior in quality and absolutely perfect for dancing. Also available on "The Ultimate Ballroom Album 1," Dancelife's "Masters of Modern Two" and Casa Musica's "Best of Ballroom Music Part 8." Beautiful rise and fall feeling in this song makes it a perfect Waltz.

Song Lyrics:

Sometimes in the mornin' when shadows are deep
I lie here beside you just watching you sleep
And sometimes I whisper what I'm thinking of
My cup runneth over with love

Sometimes in the evening when you do not see
I study the small things you do constantly
I memorize moments that I'm fondest of
My cup runneth over with love

In only a moment we both will be old
We won't even notice the world turning cold
And so, in these moments with sunlight above
My cup runneth over with love
My cup runneth over with love
With love
