Dion In The Still Of The Night Lyrics

In The Still Of The Night Lyrics

In the Still Of the Night

 Johnny Mathis

 Written by Cole Porter

 

 This version did not chart but

 In 1937 Tommy Dorsey hit # 3 and

 In 1938 Leo Resiman took it to # 9

 Also charted by Dion and the Belmonts at # 38 in 1960

 Introduced in the film "Rosalie" by Nelson Eddy. Film also starred Eleanor
Powell

 Frank Morgan, Ray Bolger, and Illona Massey

 

 In the still of the night as I gaze from my window

 At the moon in its flight, my thoughts all stray to you

 

 In the still of the night while the world is in slumber

 Oh, the times without number, darling, when I say to you:

 

 "Do you love me as I love you?

 Are you my life-to-be, my dream come true?"

 Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight

 Like the moon growing dim on the rim of the hill

 In the chill still of the night?
