Ev'ry show must have a song
|
Most ev'ryone agrees
|
For what else could the ingenue
|
and the juvenile reprise
|
|
And so I wrote a random note,
|
a harmony or two
|
And when it came to add the words
|
I tried describing you
|
|
A very precious love
|
Is what you are to me
|
A stairway to a star
|
A night in Shangril?of ecstasy
|
|
Lanterns of gold
|
Lanterns of blue
|
Twinkle in the shadows
|
While I dance with you
|
An echo in the wind
|
Across the summer lake
|
Is sayin' you should know
|
that lanterns lose their glow
|
and hearts can break
|
|
So hold me close my darling
|
then kiss me tenderly
|
And give your precious love
|
Your very precious love to me
|
|
