Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra Perfidia Lyrics

Perfidia Lyrics

PERFIDIA (TONIGHT)
Jimmy Dorsey

To you my heart cries out
"Perfidia,"
For I found you, the love of my life,
In somebody else's
arms
Your eyes are echoing "Perfidia,"
Forgetful of our promise of
love,
You're sharing another's charms
With a sad lament, my
dreams
Have faded like a broken melody;
While the gods of love look down
and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now I know my love was
not for you
And so I'll take it back with a sigh,
Perfidious one,
good-bye.
