in the still of the night

in the still of the night

as i gaze from my window

at the moon in its flight

my thoughts all stray to you

in the still of the night

while the world lies in slumber

the times without number

daring that i say to you

do you love me

like i love you

are you my life to be

my dream come true

or will that dream fade out of sight

like the moon growing dim

on the rim of the hill

in the chill

still of the night
