Lyrics

In the silence of the night
When the moon is shining bright
And the world at last is fast asleep
Every creature goes to rest
In his cozy little nest
Just his very own alone to keep
There’s a little nest of mine
Of a starry blue divine
Such a little home was never known
‘Tis a fair enchanted bow’r
Waiting for the magic hour
Glorified with you
And through your love alone
My little nest of heavenly blue
I’m lonesome there when far from you
Each nook or corner so cozy and sweet
Needs only you to be complete
Soft fragrance floats upon the air
The spell of love is everywhere
But all my life would be lonely and blue
If I could never share my little nest with you
In the silence of the night
When the moon is shining bright
In my little nest of heavenly blue
I shall never fret or pine
For some day you will be mine
Dreams will all come true for me and you
