Story behind the song
When I was a young teenager I heard someone on the radio remark that love songs were always the very best of songs and so I decided to make up some with words and music in a jazz style. I later realized that he had probably meant more romantic sounding pieces and so I laid the words aside and used the melodies to develop into my instrumental jazz pieces. However, I still remember my original words
Lyrics
1: I love you best of all
(original words for Whistle stop rag)
Baby, baby - my, you are a lovely kid..
Do I love you? Well, I always said I did.
Let me kiss you - never mind what mother said
I love you, I love you.
I love you more and more each day
I love you, I love you,
I love - you - more - than - I - can - say.
You are my fav'rite gal.
I love you best of all.
Hold me before I fall.
I love - you - best - of - all.
2: Love Sweet Love
(original words for my instrumental jazz piece)
I'm sure you know, I love you so
You'd see it in my eyes
And you love me. It's plain to see
And fun to realize.
Love, love, love love, I love you so much.
Love, love, love, love, I thrill to your touch.
My spirits are singin'
I really am swingin'
Golden bells are ringin'
Love, sweet love!
Sweet love finds us - love for you and me.
Love that binds and love that sets us free.
My darlin'
Love shall lift us 'way high up above
And on cloud nine, I'm yours, your mine
Forever love, sweet love.
