    Not only Lou Rawls but quite a lot of distinguished artists and groups (including Chad and Jeremy, The Lettermen) sang this song by Jerome Kern (Music) and Dorothy Fields (Lyrics). The lyrics:

    "Just the Way You Look Tonight"

    Someday, when I'm awfully low
    And the world is cold,
    I will feel aglow just thinking of you
    And the way you look tonight.

    Yes, you're lovely
    With your smile so warm
    And your cheek so soft
    There is nothing for me but to love you
    Just the way you look tonight.

    With each word your tenderness grows,
    Tearing my fear apart.
    And that smile that wrinkles your nose,
    Touches my foolish heart.

    Lovely, never, never change.
    Keep that breathless charm.
    Won't you please arrange it, 'cause I love you
    Just the way you look tonight
    Just the way you look tonight.
