The stars begin to peep The birdies go to sleep In the air something seems to say Go hit the hay, call it a day A lazy summer breeze
Is idling round the trees As the sun gently fades away
There’s your hand in my hand And there’s twigs in your hair There’s the sky and your eyes And I haven’t a care There are stars high above There am I with my love No-one else is in sight What a night, what a night !
Oh my darling, my sweet I have waited so long But now life is complete Just a beautiful song Since your eyes and my eyes Share the same bit of sky
And your little hand is in my hand
There’s your hand in my hand And there’s twigs in your hair There’s the sky and your eyes And I haven’t a care There are stars high above There am I with my love No-one else is in sight What a night, what a night !
Oh my darling, my sweet I have waited so long But now life is complete Just a beautiful song Since your eyes and my eyes Share the same bit of sky And your little hand is in my hand
