[Verse:]
My thoughts go back to a heavenly dance
A moment of bliss we spent
Our hearts were filled with a song of romance
As into the night we went
And sang to our hearts' content

[Refrain:]
The song is ended
But the melody lingers on
You and the song are gone
But the melody lingers on

The night was splendid
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
And the melody seemed to say
"Summer will pass away
Take your happiness while you may"

There 'neath the light of the moon
We sang a love song that ended too soon

The moon descended
And I found with the break of dawn
You and the song had gone
But the melody lingers on
