My thoughts go back to a heavenly dance A moment of bliss we spent Our hearts were filled with a thrill of romance As into the night we went And sang to our hearts' content
The song is ended But the melody lingers on You and the song is gone But the melody lingers on
The night was splendid And the melody seemed to say "summer will pass away Take your happiness while you may"
Beneath the light of the moon We found a love song that ended too soon
The moon descended And I found with the break of dawn You and the song had gone But the melody lingers on
