Verse:

The little dreams you love to cling to,
The words you sing to,
A serenade.
The magic of the night above you,
The words, "I love you,"
They all were made;

Chorus:

For lovers only, the shadows fall,
And bring the darkness that hides them all;
The twilight hangs the stars along the Milky Way,
And their design looks like a sign that seems to say:
"For Lovers Only," the way is clear,
The moon is lonely, he wants you here;
The sun's for ev'ryone, but night will always be
For lovers only, like you and me.
