That looks like Barbara Rush in "The Black Shield Of Falworth"...She was married to Jeffrey Hunter, who played Capt. Christopher Pike, not Captain Kirk, in the premiere episode of "Star Trek"..."The Cage". He also played Jesus Christ in "King of Kings", with John Wayne as a miscast Roman soldier.

Here's a song from a black and white musical from the forties:
"Don't be a down-hearted fellow...
Though your heart is breaking in two;
Smile through all teardrops,

And kiss you, and whisper,
'I miss you, I need you, I do'..."
