SO LITTLE TIME (The Peking Theme)
(Dimitri Tiomkin / Paul Francis Webster)

Duke Ellington


So little time to let you know how much I love you
So little time to let you know how much I care
And though I try to make believe this love of ours will last forever
It's just my heart that I deceive because I know, oh, yes I know

This sad old world when we are gone will go on spinning
These very stars when we are gone will shine as bright
So hold me in your arms until tomorrow
For there's so little time, so little time tonight

(These very stars when we are gone will shine as bright)
So hold me in your arms until tomorrow
For there's so little time (so little time)
So little time tonight
