The Song I Love 1928

Someone is playing
the song I love
It still can thrill me
through and through
It speaks of moonlight
and stars above
and of the June night
I found you.

There in the moon light we strayed
and, oh, the plans that we made
that night the orchestra played
the song I love,
Our passion burst into flames,
you said the song was to blame,
and that's just why it became
the song I love.
Is our flame of love
now just as ember,
and have you forgotten
all that I remember?
Or do you wish I were near,
and do you cry for me, dear,
the way I cry when I hear
the song I love?

There in the moon light we strayed
and, oh, the plans that we made
that night the orchestra played
the song I love,
Our passion burst into flames,
you said the song was to blame,
and that's just why it became
the song I love.
Is our flame of love
now just as ember,
and have you forgotten
all that I remember?
Or do you wish I were near,
and do you cry for me, dear,
the way I cry when I hear
the song I love?

Perhaps a new song
has won your heart,
But still the old song
is divine,
and when I hear it,
thought we're a part
I can't believe
that you're not mine.

There in the moon light we strayed
and, oh, the plans that we made
that night the orchestra played
the song I love,
Our passion burst into flames,
you said the song was to blame,
and that's just why it became
the song I love.
Is our flame of love
now just as ember,
and have you forgotten
all that I remember?
Or do you wish I were near,
and do you cry for me, dear,
the way I cry when I hear
the song I love?

There in the moon light we strayed
and, oh, the plans that we made
that night the orchestra played
the song I love,
Our passion burst into flames,
you said the song was to blame,
and that's just why it became
the song I love.
Is our flame of love
now just as ember,
and have you forgotten
all that I remember?
Or do you wish I were near,
and do you cry for me, dear,
the way I cry when I hear
the song I love?
