Lyrics
Moonlight was made for a June night
And June nights were made, dear
For love and romance
For heavenly kisses, for lips sweet and tender
On this night of splendor
You’re so far away
Refrain
Come closer to me
So I can see heaven in your eyes
Come closer to me
So I can be close to Paradise
Thrill me with your kisses
Let me learn what bliss is
Kiss me once and then
We’ll kiss and kiss again
And life will be divine
Come closer, my dear
So I can hear music in my heart
I’ve waited so long to hear
The song that your love will start
Darling, I’ll adore you
Live my life just for you
All I ask is this
Please give me one more kiss
And whisper you’ll be mine
