Starlit Hour
Glenn Miller
Words by Mitchell Parish, music by Matty Malneck.
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on June 26th, 1939 with Ray Eberle.
Love here in the starlit hour
Oh, heaven is in your eyes
While the wind is sobbing
Underneath the stars
Both our hearts are throbbing
Like two guitars
Love here in the starlit hour
Night whispering lullabies
Let me dream forever
Underneath the silvery skies
Will it be just as sweet again,
The glamor, the glory that we know
Will I find when we meet again
The glamor, the glorys still a glow
But tonight let us forget tomorrow
Here under the midnight blue
Love will bloom and flower
In the starlit hour with you...
