A 1922 French waltz song, “L’adoree de mon coeur”.
words and music by Leon du Parc
The sheet music:
Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- Tell me while we dance, dear
That your dream came true
‘Tis our moment’s chance, dear
My arms enfolding you
Heaven is so near me
Your eyes upraised to mine
Say it again “I love thee
And I’ll be only thine”
Refrain
Closer, closer hold me
Nestling like a dove
Sweetheart, never scold me
All I need is love
You know I adore you
We must never part
Everything for you I’d do
Idol of my heart
- Gently steals the moonbeam
O’er the tranquil night
Lighting up our love dream
With rays of amber light
Softly plays the love strain
As we glide to and fro
Whisper it dearest once again
Those words “I love you so”
