Recorded 21st September 1941



You came when the stars were gleaming
You came after all my dreaming
That night when they played the Starlight Serenade
For you, with the stars above you

My heart found a love so tender
But you would your heart surrender
That night when they played the Starlight Serenade
I knew I would always love you

Then your hand touched mine, and our lips were meeting
I found paradise in the spell of your kiss

You were mine, we were close together
Dear love, I will leave you never
For now, when I hear that Starlight Serenade
I know love will last forever.

I’ll hold you tight
While stars look down tonight.
