Awaken you Heart with  Heart and Soul

I often listen to the song "Heart and Soul". It is a very soothing, enchanting, and heartwarming song. Now, I'll share my knowledge about that song.
"Heart and Soul" is a song that was composed by the then very famous composer Hoagey Carmichael in 1938. This song was made at the zenith of the Big Band Era, where bands of seventeen or more musicians would play cornets, tubas, trumpets, pianos, etc. It comes in both instrumental and vocal versions. Since its inception in 1938, it has been sung and played in many versions and by many other famous bands like the Cleftones.
This song is usually played with a piano in a duet style. It is a softly flowing melodius song which is excellent for a slow partner dance. It is also nice to listen to after a hard day's work or if you are unhappy.
Here are the original lyrics of the song's vocal version, sung by Bea Wain in 1938:
Heart and soul, I fell in love with you
Heart and soul, the way a fool would do, madly
Because you held me tight
And stole a kiss in the night

Heart and soul, I begged to be adored
Lost control, and tumbled overboard, gladly
That magic night we kissed
There in the moon mist

Oh! but your lips were thrilling, much too thrilling
Never before were mine so strangely willing

But now I see, what one embrace can do
Look at me, it's got me loving you madly
That little kiss you stole
Held all my heart and soul
