Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Soft_Lights_And_Sweet_Music – MIDIDOWNLOAD
Lyrics
I can’t resist the moan of a cello
I can’t resist the light of the moon
So place me in a light that is mellow
And let me hear a beautiful tune
The music must flow
The lights must be low
Chorus
Soft lights and sweet music
And you in my arms
Soft lights and sweet melody
Will bring you closer to me
Chopin and pale moonlight
Reveal all your charms
So give me velvet lights and sweet music
And you in my arms
Sung here by Laurence Rubenstein:
