I See Your Face Before Me is a popular song composed by Arthur Schwartz with lyrics by Howard Dietz. It was introduced by Evelyn Laye and Adele Dixon in the 1937 Broadway musical Between the Devil. The tune is a classic pop song and jazz standard, and it became a charting hit with Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians reaching number 12 and Glen Gray & The Casa Loma Orchestra reaching number 13. Notable recordings span decades with artists such as Mildred Bailey, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, Nat King Cole and John Coltrane. Johnny Hartman's 1980 recording was used in the 1995 film The Bridges of Madison County to accompany a dance and kiss scene. The song also marks Nelson Riddle's first arrangement in 1938 and he later arranged it for Sinatra's 1955 album In the Wee Small Hours.
