By A Waterfall (from "footlight Parade") Lyrics - Dick Powell

By a Waterfall 

Guy Lombardo 

Words by irving Kahal and music by Sammy Fain. 

-Introduced by Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler in the film "Footlight Parade." 

(verse) 

I appreciate the simple things, 

"Cause I'm awf'lly fond of getting, 

Love in a natural setting. 

This is what I call the simple things, 

Just a winding stream, 

Where I can drift and dream 

And now I'm waiting for you. 

(refrain) 

By a waterfall, I'm calling you-oo-oo-oo, 

We can share it all beneath a ceiling of blue. 

We'll spend a heavenly day, 

Here where the whispering waters play. 

There's a whippoorwill that's calling you-oo-oo-oo, 

By a waterfall, he's dreaming too. 

There's a magic melody, 

Mother Nature sings to me, 

Beside a waterfall with you.
