Early Sixties heart-throb Craig Douglas (once voted by Elvis Presley as the best pop newcomer of 1959), here with an album track that displays his style to perfection.  Interesting story behind this song: it was a #1 hit for Tommy Edwards back in the 1950s.  The melody had been written by Charles Gates Dawes back in 1911 but it was forty years before Carl Sigman put lyrics to it (in 1951). Dawes went on to become vice-President of the United States (under Calvin Coolidge), thus making him the only American vice-President ever to write a #1 hit song.
