Mathis, Johnny - And This Is My Beloved Lyrics






Dawn's promising skies
Petals on a pool drifting
Imagine these in one pair of eyes
And this is my beloved

Strange spice from the south
Honey through the comb sifting
Imagine these in one eager mouth
And this is my beloved

And when she speaks
And when she talks to me
Music! Mystery!
And when she moves
And when she walks with me
Paradise comes suddenly near

All that can stir
All that can stun
All that's for the heart's lifting
Imagine these in one perfect one

And this is my beloved
And this is my beloved

Mathis, Johnny And This Is My Beloved Comments
  1. P.... ....

    wow Johnny sings this wonderfully.

  2. R.... B....

    Such a pure voice, not sure how else to describe it! I think this is the first time I have heard this beautiful song!

    R.... B....

    Your response registered literally
    a few seconds after I posted my
    comment. I went
    to check the spelling of a word, which I had indeed
    spelled incorrectly,
    and returned to fix that, and decided to add a little more to my remarks, and your
    comment had magically appeared.😃😃😃

    R.... B....

    I'm quick that way........once in a while!

    R.... B....

    One for you by two different people...I like both Irma Thomas from my younger years, Allen Toussaint I found recently " It's Raining

    The most "operatic" of Mr.
    Mathis' performances, based on a melody from Alexander Borodin's STRING QUARTET IN D, with lyrics written by Robert Wright & George Forest. They provided this Jewel as part of the music for the
    score to the Broadway play "Kismet" in 1953. As I used to say, "Let's
    see Sinatra turn in
    a performance like
    THIS!" Let's see
    anyone
    today less than an
    operatic tenor
    like Ramon Vargas or Marcelo Alvarez
    try it!!! Perfect in all respects.👍 God's angels themselves were listening in as this immortal recording was being made. Mr.
    Mathis was really singing from the mountaintop on this one.😃 This
    video deserves one million views!!

    And yet still ... we know not why - it simply just is.. those 10 years or so since I left you in the elevator at la Cienega and Santa Monica....it wasn't the first time we had brushed past each other ... neither one of us could say a solitary word. ... you were and remain eternally so beautiful to my eyes they were burnt a bit ... and life goes on still but I always wonder .. always will so sorry I missed December 4 in o county -front row ticket but ny heart was still fractured from a very bad fall a half dozen years earlier. I'm healing fast now ....I wrote this for my mother, a saint, Alex johns, a saint and for you .... I could give a rats ass what anyone thinks about this or me or anything ... they are guests after all ... this's public platform is the most anonymous and lonely world when it is ... only a moment in time but terribly eternal ...I know that :) https://planetlobster.wordpress.com/2016/01/30/celestial-orchestrations/
