DIANE (SONG)

'Diane' was a popular single by Irish band The Bachelors released on the Decca label. It reached Number 1 in the UK's Record Retailer chart (though not in the Pick of the Pops chart used by the BBC or the NME chart used by Radio Luxembourg) and number 10 in the US charts in 1964. The song title is sometimes mistakenly referred to as 'My Diane'.
The song was originally written as a theme song for the 1927 classic silent movie Seventh Heaven, by Erno Rapee & Lew Pollack.
Jim Reeves also covered the song in the 1950s.

Lyrics

I'm in heaven when I see you smile;

Smile for me, my Diane.
And though ev'rything's dark all the while

I can see you, Diane.
You have lighted the road leading home;

Pray for me when you can.
But no matter wherever I roam,

Smile for me, my Diane.
(Last time)
Smile for me, my Diane.
