Lyrics

  1. Tiny stars above, little lamps of love
    Throw a kiss to every flower
    In my loneliness, fondly I caress
    Memories of one sweet hour

Chorus:
In the middle of the night
The moon was bright
And by its light I kissed you
In the middle of a kiss
You sighed with bliss
And whispered this: “I missed you”
In the middle of a glance
You smiled by chance
How could romance resist you?
Every moment had its charms, dear
When I held you in my arms, dear
In the middle of the night with you

  1. By a silver stream oftentimes I dream
    On a lovely theme so tender
    In my reverie you come back to me
    On that night of sweet surrender
