Carl Sigman composed the lyrics in 1951 to a wordless 1911 composition titled "Melody in A Major", written by Charles G. Dawes, who was later Vice President of the United States under Calvin Coolidge. It is the only No. 1 single in the U.S. to have been co-written by a U.S. Vice President or a Nobel Peace Prize laureate (Dawes was both). The song has become a pop standard, with cover versions by dozens of artists, some of which have been minor hit singles. Edwards's song ranked at No. 47 on the 2018 list of The Hot 100's All-Time Top 600 Songs. Cliff Richard had a number two hit in the United Kingdom in 1963 and a number 25 hit on the US Hot 100 in 1964. This was Richard's only top 40 hit in the United States in the 1960s (compared to his UK tally of 43) and his last until "Devil Woman" in 1976. In Canada it reached number 1 on the CHUM Chart. Lyrics Many a tear has to fall But it's all, in the game All in the wonderful game That we know as love You have words with him And your future's looking dim But these things Your heart can rise above Once in a while he won't call But it's all, in the game Soon he'll be there at your side With a sweet bouquet And he'll kiss your lips And caress your waiting finger tips And your heart will fly away Once in a while he won't call But it's all in the game Soon he'll be there at your side With a sweet bouquet And then he'll kiss your lips And caress your waiting finger tips And your heart will fly away And your heart will fly fly away And your heart will fly away
