Lyrics
1. There’s music in the air and laughter everywhere
The party’s on, and everyone’s romancing, dancing
But soon the lights a-glow are slowly turning low
You hear the echo of the chimes a ringing, singing
Chorus:
Midnight, magic hour when hearts grow tender
Midnight, luring love ’till hearts surrender
Dance while moonbeams are kissing the sky
Don’t say goodbye, inger in my arms
It’s only midnight, hear the violins appealing
Our dreams vanish when the dawn comes stealing
Leaving me, love, just a memory
Of midnight, moonlight and you
2. The magic hour is past, the moon is sinking fast
The party’s over, hear the music sighing, dying
Yet when the bright dawn beams
There’ll come to haunt my dreams
The same sweet melodies of love enthralling, calling
