Lyrics

  1. Evening shades are falling
    Stars are peeping thru
    Love to love is calling
    My heart calls out to you

Chorus
I love you, truly I do
I’m always dreaming of you
Want to hold you in my arms
And tell my love so true
Evenings now seem dreary
You’re not here to cheer me
Life would be worthwhile
Just to see your smile
I love you, truly I do

  1. Moonbeams gently stealing
    From the skies of blue
    Do you really know dear
    Just how I long for you
