|
In the still of the night as I gaze from my window
|
At the moon in its flight, my thoughts all stray to you
|
|
In the still of the night while the world is in slumber
|
Oh, the times without number, darling, when I say to you:
|
|
"Do you love me as I love you?
|
Are you my life-to-be, my dream come true?"
|
Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight
|
Like the moon growing dim on the rim of the hill
|
In the chill still of the night?
