You Are My Love

There’s a song they play in Venice
every time the moon is high
You will hear it from the gondolier
when he goes drifting by
Every lover serenades his lady
with this melody
Saying so tenderly:

(TRIO )
You are my love, now and forever
You’re in my heart, never to part,
You are my love

Tingling mandolins now tell you
all the dreams that wait for you
And in your gondola you will find
a lover’s lane for two,
At the carnival they sing this song
and then they steal a kiss
Softly they whisper this:

(TRIO)
You are my love, how I adore you,
Life is divine, now that you’re mine
You are my love
