A Kiss Before The Dawn - Lyric

You and I must leave each other soon, dear, In the sky no longer shines the moon, dear, Hold me, hold me tight, Soon the day will end our night. Far away, the light is growing stronger, Soon you'll say that you are mine no longer, Hold me, hold me while the violins Tell us we must part sweetheart.

Just a kiss before the dawn, And then we'll say: "Goodbye." While the music plays the last sweet waltz, We'll dance it thro' together you and I; Just one more embrace, Before this night of nights is gone. Swear by the stars that you will remember, Our kiss before the dawn. Can't you see the precious moments fleeting, There may be for us no other meeting, Hold me, in your arms, While the night still weaves its charms. Seems as though the violins are sobbing. They must know the way my heart is trobbing, Skies grow brighter, hold me tighter, Once more before we part, sweetheart.

Just a kiss before the dawn, And then we'll say: "Goodbye." While the music plays the last sweet waltz, We'll dance it thro' together you and I; Just one more embrace, Before this night of nights is gone. Swear by the stars that you will remember, Our kiss before the dawn.
