Goodnight my love,
The tired old moon is descending.
Goodnight my love,
My moment with you is now ending.
It was so heavenly,
Holding you close to me,
It will be heavenly
To hold you again in a dream.
The stars above
Have promised to meet us tomorrow,
Till then, my love,
How dreary the new day will seem.
So for the present, dear,
We'll have to part;
Goodnight my love,
Sleep tight my love,
Remember that you're mine, sweetheart.
The stars above
Have promised to meet us tomorrow,
Till then, my love,
How dreary the new day will seem.
So for the present, dear,
We'll have to part;
Goodnight my love,
Sleep tight my love,
Remember that you're mine, sweetheart.

GOODNIGHT MY LOVE
as recorded by
Johnny Mathis
Good night, my love
The tired old moon is descending
Good night, my love
My moment with you now is ending.
It was so heavenly
Holding you close to me
It will be heavenly
To hold you again in my dreams.
The stars above
Have promised to meet us tomorrow
'Til then, my love
How dreary the new day will seem.
So for the present dear
We'll have to part
Sleep tight, my love
Good night, my love
Remember that you're mine, sweet heart.
So for the present dear
We'll have to part
Sleep tight, my love
Good night, my love
Remember that you're mine, sweet heart.
