Lyrics
In a sentimental mood I can see
The stars come through my room
While your loving attitude
Is like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of every kiss
Drift a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss
You make my paradise complete
Rose pearls seem to fall
It's all like a dream to call you mine
My heart's lighter thing
Since you made me this night a thing divine
In a sentimental mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt
That you'd be loving sentimental me
In a sentimental mood I can see
The stars come through my room
While your loving attitude
Is like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of every kiss
Drift a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss
You make my paradise complete
Rose pearls seem to fall
It's all like a dream to call you mine
My heart's lighter thing
Since you made me this night a thing divine
In a sentimental mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt
That you'd be loving sentimental me
