April In Portugal Lyrics

The High and the Mighty
Johnny Desmond
(Words by Ned Washington; Music by Dimitri Tiomkin)
- From the movie The High and the Mighty
I was high and mighty
How I laughed at love
And the stars above
Then you came like a gentle flame
And helped me to find my way!
I was high and mighty
And I told my heart
Where to stop and start
Now I find that I was blind
I'm learning it day by day!
Love can change things
Rearrange things
Oh, what strange things
Love can do!
I'm not high and mighty
But I have what's worth
All the gold on earth
I have you and I give my heart
Forever and ever to you, you, you!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
