Where Were You Last Night? - 1931

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 07 Oct 2001

Once in ev'ry lifetime
comes a night for love,
one that you will always recall;
But then it sometimes happens
on that night for love,
there's no one beside you at all.

Last night the moon was in its glory,
last night the stars were shining bright;
but let me interrupt my story,
where were you last night?
Last night was wonderful for kissing,
for arms to hold each other tight;
but all those little things were missing,
where were you last night?
I would have told you gladly
how much I really care,
I could have loved you madly,
why couldn't you be there!
The magic spell that I was under,
may never come another night,
that's why I'm always goin' to wonder
where were you last night?

Last night the moon was in its glory,
last night the stars were shining bright;
but let me interrupt my story,

Last night was wonderful for kissing,
for arms to hold each other tight;
but all those little things were missing,
where were you last night?
I would have told you gladly
how much I really care,
I could have loved you madly,
why couldn't you be there!
The magic spell that I was under,
may never come another night,
that's why I'm always goin' to wonder
where were you last night?

Once in ev'ry lifetime
comes a yearning,
for something you never can explain;
But then sometimes it happens
what you're yearning for,
only leaves you yearning in vain.

Last night the moon was in its glory,
last night the stars were shining bright;
but let me interrupt my story,
where were you last night?
Last night was wonderful for kissing,
for arms to hold each other tight;
but all those little things were missing,
where were you last night?
I would have told you gladly
how much I really care,
I could have loved you madly,
why couldn't you be there!
The magic spell that I was under,
may never come another night,
that's why I'm always goin' to wonder
where were you last night?
