A simple - yet beautiful love song from the sound track of the 1950 film "Our Very Own"
Sung in her own inimitable way, by the Beautiful, versatile and greatly missed songstress Jo Stafford.
OUR VERY OWN
From the 1950 film "Our Very Own", starring Farley Granger and Ann Blyth.
(Jack D. Elliot / Victor Young)
Recorded by : Greta Keller; The Mastersounds;
Vaughn Monroe & His Orch.; Jo Stafford; Sonny Stitt; Sarah Vaughan.
There's a magic land
All our very own
It's ever close at hand
And our very own
Beyond a secret door
There lies a garden fair
With roses everywhere
For only us to share
Love brings everything
Right before our eyes
The miracle of spring
Never fades or dies
For we have but to kiss
And all of this
Is ours alone
The magic is our very own
Saw the movie in 1950 as a 12 year old...loved it, and I remember the song well, by the wonderful Jo Stafford. Even though we hadn't been long out of ww2 I still have lots of great memories from that era, especially the music.

Memorable song. This is the title song of the Movie Our Very Own featuring Ann Blyth. I was in the High School at that time.

It is wonderful to reconnect with this beautiful Jo Stafford song. I can't recall when last I listened to it.
Thank you so much for sharing this gem.
