You're All The World To Me
"You're All The World to Me" is an American song written in 1950 by composer Burton Lane and lyricist Alan Jay Lerner for the 1951 MGM musical, ''Royal Wedding''.

The music to the song was used again in 1953 for the title credits and dance routine that opened MGM's ''Torch Song'', which starred Joan Crawford. Song also recorded by *Tony Bennett *Matthew Morrison and Jayma Mays as their characters Will Schuester and Emma Pillsbury, respectively, on the fourth season of the American TV series '' Glee''.
