I BRING A LOVE SONG
(L) Oscar Hammerstein, (M) Sigmund Romberg)
As recorded by:
Orpheus Dance Band, Dir. John Firman
V. Maurice Elwin
Recorded January 1931
I bring a song, only a love song
Shy as a day in spring
Trying to tell you all that it knows
All that heart dare not speak, songs may sing
Born in the moonlight, fed by caresses
Our song should never die
Keep it caressed, dear
Hold it always to your breast, dear
Don’t let our love song die.
