Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
The sky was filled with stardust
The night was filled with romance
My heart was filled with a love for you
But I never had a chance
Refrain
And so you kissed me
But it didn’t mean a thing
Never was a sigh so tender
But it didn’t mean a thing
When you caressed me
How I wanted you to cling
You pretended to surrender
But it didn’t mean a thing
I gave you my heart
And you thrilled me with delight
But you never gave me your heart
You just loaned it for the night
If vows were made of gold
I’d now wear a wedding ring
You swore that you loved me
But it didn’t mean a thing
