Subject: Lyr Add: MOONLIGHT AND ROSES
Here you go, Beachcomber. These are the lyrics from the YouTube video linked above. I believe I'll print these out and memorize them myself.

When vesper bells are ringing,
I hear sweet voices singing
as evening shadows fall.
It's then my heart grows fonder
as through the flowers I wander
with thoughts so true, dear
always of you, dear.

CHORUS
Moonlight and roses
bring wonderful mem'ries of you.
My heart reposes in beautiful thoughts so true.
June light discloses the golden dreams sparkling anew.
Moonlight and roses
bring mem'ries of you.

VERSE 2
I oft recall our meeting,
our tender, loving greeting.
Your smiles still haunt my dreams.
And then, alas, we parted.
You left me broken-hearted,
but still I yearn, dear,
for your return, dear.
REPEAT CHORUS
