MARIANNA
Love theme from the film "The Counterfeit Traitor" (1962)
(Music: Alfred Newman / Lyrics: Paul Francis Webster)
Johnny Mathis - 1962
Marianna, Marianna
Like lovely music
A dream never dies
All though I’ve lost you
I’ve never be lonely
For we have shared a world of no goodbyes.
With the lamp light
Soft behind you
Someday I’ll find you
And my heart will smile
Marianna, my Marianna
Auf wiedersehen for just a little while.
Oh Marianna (chorus)
My Marianna
Auf wiedersehen for just a little while.
NOTES:
Johnny Mathis has sold over 350 million records confirmed by Guinness World
Records and was the undisputed king of the romantic Fifties ‘make out ‘ music.
