Good Night My Love

Billie Holiday


Good night, my love, the tired old moon is descending.
Good night, my love, my moment with you is now ending.
It was so heavenly, holding you close to me.
It will be heavenly to hold you again in a dream.
The stars above have promised to meet us tomorrow.
Till then, my love, how dreary the new day will seem.
So for the present, dear, we'll have to part.

Sleep tight, my love, good night, my love,
Remember that you're mine, sweetheart.

Good night, my love, your little Dutch dolly is yawning.
Good night, my love, your teddy bear called it a day.
Your doggy's fast asleep, my but he's smart.
Sleep tight, my love, good night, my love,
God bless you, pleasant dreams, sweetheart.
