Lyrics
Sometime soon to be
There’s a lover’s moon to be
And a lover’s tune to be born
No more will I be forlorn
I whisper softly till morn
I want you to kiss
For there must be two to kiss
Moments are so few to kiss now
So `neath a sycamore bough
Meet me there, greet me there somehow
Chorus
Twilight soon will fade
I’ll meet you at the masquerade
While our hearts are swinging
To violins singing till dawn
Lady dressed in jade
Hold me tight at the masquerade
If the music halts, dear
Then my heart will waltz, dear, right on
Twelve o’clock is chiming
On the clock above
Now if you’ll unmask your heart
I’ll love you, love you
Midnight shadows fade
No one’s left at the masquerade
Everything is through, dear
But my love for you, dear, lives on
