Lyrics

I recall the story,
 That night of love and glory
 A night that left my heart romantic scars
 We stood so near to heaven
 That I reached clear to heaven
 And gathered you a handful of stars
 Sweet remembered hour
 When love began to flower
 With moonlight through the trees like silver balls
 And as the moon grew older
 I reached across your shoulder
 And gathered you a handful of stars
 I placed my fingertips upon your lips
 And stars fell in your eyes
 Moonglow made a halo of your hair
 Suddenly you looked at me and dreams began to rise
 Oh, what things unspoken trembled in the air
 Our hearts were madly beating
 And then our lips were meeting
 And Venus seemed to melt right into Mars
 Then while we stood caressing
 Blue heaven sent a blessing
 A shower of a handful of stars...!
 I recall the story,
 That night of love and glory
 A night that left my heart romantic scars
 We stood so near to heaven
 That I reached clear to heaven
 And gathered you a handful of stars
 Sweet remembered hour
 When love began to flower
 With moonlight through the trees like silver balls
 And as the moon grew older
 I reached across your shoulder
 And gathered you a handful of stars
 I placed my fingertips upon your lips
 And stars fell in your eyes
 Moonglow made a halo of your hair
 Suddenly you looked at me and dreams began to rise
 Oh, what things unspoken trembled in the air
 Our hearts were madly beating
 And then our lips were meeting
 And Venus seemed to melt right into Mars
 Then while we stood caressing
 Blue heaven sent a blessing
 A shower of a handful of stars...!
 I recall the story,
 That night of love and glory
 A night that left my heart romantic scars
 We stood so near to heaven
 That I reached clear to heaven
 And gathered you a handful of stars
 Sweet remembered hour
 When love began to flower
 With moonlight through the trees like silver balls
 And as the moon grew older
 I reached across your shoulder
 And gathered you a handful of stars
 I placed my fingertips upon your lips
 And stars fell in your eyes
 Moonglow made a halo of your hair
 Suddenly you looked at me and dreams began to rise
 Oh, what things unspoken trembled in the air
 Our hearts were madly beating
 And then our lips were meeting
 And Venus seemed to melt right into Mars
 Then while we stood caressing
 Blue heaven sent a blessing
 A shower of a handful of stars...!
