The complete lyrics:

    I am dreaming Dear of you, day by day
    Dreaming when the skies are blue, When they're gray;
    When the silv'ry moonlight gleams, Still I wander on in dreams,
    In a land of love, it seems, Just with you.
    Let me call you "Sweetheart," I'm in love with you.
    Let me hear you whisper that you love me too.
    Keep the love-light glowing in your eyes so true.
    Let me call you "Sweetheart," I'm in love with you.

    Longing for you all the while, More and more;
    Longing for the sunny smile, I adore;
    Birds are singing far and near, Roses blooming ev'rywhere
    You, alone, my heart can cheer; You, just you.

    Let me call you "Sweetheart," I'm in love with you.
    Let me hear you whisper that you love me too.
    Keep the love-light glowing in your eyes so true.
    Let me call you "Sweetheart," I'm in love with you.
