STARLIGHT, STARBRIGHT
(traditional / George Weiss / Bob Davie)

as recorded by Linda Scott
with The Hutch Davie Orchestra & Chorus
1961


(Starlight, starbright,
First star I see tonight;
Wish I may, wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight!)

Starlight, starbright,
First star I see tonight;
I wish I may, wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight!

Shine down starlight,
Please help to make this our night!
The one I love will be here soon,
Please shine above and bring the moon.

If he should take me riding,
Far away from the city,
Cover me with your magic glow,
Make him think I'm oh so pretty!

Starlight, starbright,
First star I see tonight;
Can't you hear my plea to you?
Won't you make my dreams come true?

Starlight, starbright,
First star I see tonight;
Can't you hear my plea to you?
Won't you make my dreams come true?

(First star I see tonight)
Ooh that pretty starlight!
(First star I see tonight)
Hey, look at that starlight!
(First star I see tonight)
Oh what a pretty starlight!
