A Valentine for You!

This is for you guys out there who I truly miss! Wish you were right here beside me! This is Michael Buble’s version. But I really like Barbra Streisand’s version better.

 Happy Valentine Everyone!

You'll Never Know Lyrics

 Artist(Band):Michael Buble

You'll never know just how much I miss you,

You'll never know just how much I care.

And if I tried I still couldn't hide My love for you

You ought to know For haven't I told you so

 A million or more times?

You went away and my heart went with you

I speak your name in my every prayer

If there is some other way

To prove that I love you I swear I don't know how

You'll never know if you don't know now.

You'll Never Know" is a popular song. The music was written by Harry Warren and the lyrics by Mack Gordon based on a poem written by a young Oklahoma war bride named Dorothy Fern Norris. The song was featured in the 1943 movie Hello, Frisco, Hello where it is sung by Alice Faye. It was also performed by Faye in the 1944 film Four Jills in a Jeep. It was recorded in 1943 by, among others, Frank Sinatra and Dick Haymes (whose version was a #1 hit on the R&B charts that year). A 1952 recording by Rosemary Clooney is also well known, even a version recorded in 1954 by Big Maybelle. The Sinatra and Haymes records were made during a strike by the American Federation of Musicians. As a result, the recordings were made without musicians, using a vocal group as backup for the singers replacing the usual instrumental backup. The group backing Haymes, The Song Spinners, was actually given credit on the records. The song was the first song that Barbra Streisand ever recorded in 1955. It was the opening song on her 4-CD box-set Just for the Record (1991). The box-set closed with another version of the song, sung as a duet by Streisand in 1991 and herself as a girl of 13. The song won the 1943 Academy Award for Best Original Song.
