Over the Bannister (From "Meet Me in St. Louis")

Over the bannister leans a face…
Tenderly… sweet,
And… and…
Beguiling
While below her with tender grace
He watches the pictures, smiling
A light burns dim in the hall below
Nobody sees them standing
Saying goodnight again
Soft in love
Halfway up to the landing
Nobody, only those eyes of brown
Tender and full of meaning
Gaze on the…
Loveliest face in town
Over the bannister leaning
