about

Lyric by Lorenz Hart
Music by Richard Rodgers (1935)

lyrics

My romance doesn't need to have a moon in the sky
My romance doesn't need a blue lagoon standing by
No month of May, no twinkling stars
No hideaway, no soft guitar

My romance doesn't need a castle rising in Spain
Or a dance to a constantly surprising refrain
Wide awake I can make my most fantastic dreams come true
My romance doesn't need a thing but you.



First to win an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony) and also collecting a Pulitzer, Richard Rodgers was prolific and enormously gifted. After collaborating for nearly a quarter century with Lorenz Hart, he went on to partner with Oscar Hammerstein II from 1943 to Oscar's passing in 1960. He couldn't have chosen two more disparate lyricists had he tried but both partnerships were supremely successful, providing the world with a plethora of beloved songs and book shows He went on to write both music and lyrics for a hit show, No Strings, in 1962. My Romance was written in 1935 for show "Jumbo", subsequently recorded by an extraordinary number of artists and considered by some to be one of the most beautiful love songs ever created.
