This lovely tune was sung in the film Reckless by Virginia Verrill, dubbing for Jean Harlow. Legend has it that the co-writer, Jack King, wrote a set of "off-color" lyrics to his song, which he would sing at private functions. The piano in this clip belonged to composer Dana Suesse (1909-1987) and was completely restored in 2009 by Cantabile Piano Co., New York.
I don't think I ever noticed what a really pretty tune this is. Thanks so much!
