Lyrics Nights Of Splendor (Neapolitan Nights) - Jo Stafford, Gordon MacRae

Nights Of Splendor (Neapolitan Nights)

Twilight is falling in fair Italy
Stars kiss the sky
Night stealing near like a soft melody
Bids day goodbye
There as I lingered long
Entered my heart this song
Oh, nights of splendour
Your charms so tender
Make love surrender
Till stars are gone
Gay nights of laughter
Though tears come after
Love regrets, love forgets
When comes the dawn
Serenaders sleeping
Of thee, dear, keeping
When stars are weeping
As they depart
Dawn bells are pealing
While night is stealing
To its nest, love to rest
Within my heart
