You're All The World to Me

You're All The World to Me

"You're All The World To Me" (1950) is a song written by Burton Lane and Alan Jay Lerner. The song was introduced by Fred Astaire in the movie Royal Wedding. [A Lane song with the same melody, but with lyrics by Harold Adamson, entitled "My Minstrel Man" was introduced by Harold Nicholas in "Kid Millions" (1934).] Astaire is featured singing about his love interest played by Sarah Churchill, and with a custom made set which mechanically rolled to make Astaire look like he was dancing on the walls and ceiling as well as on the floor.
