-8 -9 8* 8 -8 -7* -7 7* 6 7 6
Your lips were like a red and ru-by chal-ice,
7 -6* -6 6 -5* -9 -8
Warm-er than the sum-mer night
-7 8 -8 -7* -7 7* 7 -6* -5 -6 -5
The clouds were like an al-a-bas-ter pal-ace,
-6 6 -5* -5 5* 8 -7
Ris-ing to a snow-y height
7 -7* -7 7* 7 -6* -6 6 5 -5* 5
Each star its own au-ro-ra bo-re-a-lis,
6 -5 5* 5 -4 -7* 7…
Sud-den-ly you held me tight
-7* 7 6 -6 7 7 7…
I could see the mid-night sun
-8 -9 9* 8 -8 -7* -7 7*
I can’t ex-plain the sil-ver rain
6 7 6 7 -6* -6 -5 -5* -9 -8
that found me or was that a moon-lit veil?
-7 8 -8 -7* -7 7* 7 -6* -5 -6 -5
The mu-sic of the un-i-verse a-round me
-6 6 -5* -5 5* 8 -7
or was that a night-in-gale?
7 -7* -7 7* 7 -6* -6 6 5 -5* 5
And then your arms mir-ac-u-lous-ly found me,
6 -5 5* 5 -4 -7* 7…
Sud-den-ly the sky turned pale
-7* 7 6 -6 7 7 7
I could see the mid-night sun
-8 8* 7* -7 -8
Was there such a night,
7 -7 -8 8* 7 -7 -8 8* -7
it’s a thrill I still don’t quite be-lieve
-6* -7 -8 -6* 7 -7
But af-ter you were gone,
-6* 7 -7 -8 -6 7 -7 -8 7…
there was still some star-dust on my sleeve
-8 -9 9* 8 -8 -7* -7 7* 6 7 6
The flame of it may dwind-le to an em-ber
7 -6* -6 6 -5* -9 -8
and the stars for-get to shine
-7 8 -8 -7* -7 7* 7 -6* -5 -6 -5
And we may see the mea-dow in De-cem-ber,
-6 6 -5* -5 5* 8 -7
I-cy white and crys-tal-line
7 -7* -7 7* 7 -6* -6
But oh, my dar-ling al-ways
6 5 -5* 5 6 -5 5*
I’ll re-mem-ber when your lips
5 -4 -7* 7
were close to mine
-7* 7 6 -6 7 7 7
And we saw the mid-night sun
