[Sarah Vaughan and Billy Eckstine:]
All the world's great lovers have been glorified
History placed them in a romantic set
In between book covers they are side by side
But the real thing hasn't been written yet
[Sarah Vaughan:]
Now it can be told
Told in all its glory
Now that we have met
The world may know the sentimental story
[Billy Eckstine:]
The greatest story they ever knew
Is waiting to
Unfold
[Sarah Vaughan:]
Now it can be told
As an inspiration
Every other tale
Of boy meets girl is just an imitation
[Sarah Vaughan and Billy Eckstine: 2x]
The great love story
Has never been told before
But now
Now it can be told
