Moonlight in Moscow - Kenny Ball, Jazzmen

Stillness in the grove

Not a rustling sound

Softly shines the moon clear and bright

Dear, if you could know

How I treasure so

This most beautiful Moscow Night

Lazily the brook like a silvery stream

Ripples in the light of the moon

And a song afar fades as in a dream

In this night that will end too soon

Yes a song afar fades as in a dream

In this night that will end too soon

Dearest, why so sad, why the downcast eyes

And your lovely head bent so low

Oh, I mustn’t speak, though I’d love to say

That you’ve stolen my heart away

Promise me my love, as the dawn appears

And the darkness turns into light

That you’ll cherish dear, through the passing years

This most beautiful Moscow Night

Say you’ll cherish dear through the passing years

This most beautiful Moscow Night
