Perchance are you seeking the title song from the Hepburn movie of the same name?

FUNNY FACE

(MAN sings)
I love your funny face
Your sunny, funny face.
For you're a cutie
With more than beautie.
You've got a lot of
per-son-a-li-ty for me.
You fill the air with smiles
For miles and miles and miles.
Though you're no Mona Lisa,
For worlds I'd not replace
Your sunny, funny face.

(WOMEN sings) You've made my life so glamorous,
You can't blame me for feeling amorous.
Oh, 's wonderful, 's marvellous...

Sorry, the song was written by Ira and George Gershwin, copyrighted 1957.

Hey, Garg, I think you left out a verse:

Frankie (Adele Astaire) [to dog]:
I love your funny face
Your sunny, funny face.
You never bother
About your father.
Have you no shame?
You're just a mutt and nothing but!
Yet when you wag your tail,
You'll never be for sale.
Though you're no Rin Tin Tin, dear,
For worlds I'd not replace
Your sunny, funny face.

The song was introduced by Fred & Adele in a show called Funny Face in 1927. Like many Gershwin songs, it got used in many productions, with words changed to fit the situation. (other verses available upon request)

But I think the requester is looking for Donna Fargo's 1967 song, "Funny Face." comin' up in a jiffy.

FUNNY FACE
(Donna Fargo)
© 1967, Prima-Donna Music Co.

Funny Face, I love you, Funny Face, I need you;
My whole world's wrapped up in you;

When the road I walk seems all uphill
And the colors in my rainbow turn blue;
You kiss the tears away;
You smile at me and say,
"Funny Face, I love you."

CHORUS
Funny Face, I love you, Funny Face, I need you;
These are the sweetest words I've ever heard;
Funny Face, don't leave me; Funny Face, believe me,
My whole world's wrapped up in you;

I hurt your feelings, as I sometimes do;
And I say those mean things that we know are not true.
You forgive my childish way;
You hold me close and say,
"Funny Face, I love you."
CHORUS


I like the Gershwin song better.
-Joe Offer (lyrics sent by e-mail)-
