Verse:
There's music in the moonlight,
There's music in a star.
Maybe you know the tune.
If you don't know the music
Or what the lyrics are,
Here in my arms,
You'll learn it soon;
Chorus:
The song of surrender is silently sung
When two hearts are tender and young.
It's the language of sighs,
And the pleading of eyes,
And the smile that implies,
"I will."
You long to surrender, and sometimes you do,
Tomorrow, the romance is through;
But you always remember the sweet music of
The song of surrender and love.
