DON'T LET THE STARS GET IN YOUR EYES - Answer Song




PERRY COMO 1912-2001
1912 年生於美國, 父母親是1910年由義大利移民至美國, 他是家中十三個孩子排行笫七, 亦是家裡第一個出生於美國的孩子, 由於生活於義大利家庭, 要到上學之齡才開始學習英語, 十歲已幫補家計, 課餘為理髮店學徒, 週薪五十仙, 十三歲學成為理髮師, 但需要站上小凳, 增加高度才能施其剪技


Perry 的父親是一位業餘男中音歌手, 雖然清貧, 仍不惜重負與鼓勵兒女去學習音樂, Perry 除了歌唱外, 其他樂器如 Trombone, Guitar 及電子琴, 件件佳能。在理髮店工作中認識常客 Stan Vinton, 邀請 Perry 参予其樂 "Canonsburg Italian Band" 為成員, 由此成為他踏上歌唱之路; Stand Vinton 的兒子 Bobby Vinton 日後亦成為出名手之一

  
DON'T LET THE STARS GET IN YOUR EYES - Perry Como
Written by: Slim Willet
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one I'll ever love

Too many nights (too many nights)
Too many stars (too many stars)
Too many moons could change your mind
(Don't let the moon change your mind)
If I'm gone too long don't forget where you belong
When the stars come out remember you are mine

Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one I'll ever love

Too many miles (too many miles)
Too many days (too many days)
Too many nights too be alone
(Too many night all alone)
Oh, please keep your heart while we are apart
Dontcha linger in the moonlight when I'm gone
(While I'm gone)

Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
(Don't let the moon break your heart)
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know your the only one I'll ever love
(I'll ever love)
I'll ever love

You're the only one (you're the only one)
I'll ever love

ANSWER SONG
I LET THE STARS GET IN MY EYES - Goldie Hill
Written: Slim Willet, Tommy Hill (Goldie's brother)
I let the stars get in my eyes, I let the moon steal my heart
You've been gone so long I couldn't stay at home
What could I do, but give to him my love so dear
Now he's the only one I'm thinkin' of

Too many miles, too many days
Too many nights I was alone
His love was so grand when he held my hand
You know how the moonlight lures you on

I let the stars get in my eyes, I let the moon steal my heart
You've been gone so long I couldn't stay at home
What could I do, but give to him my love so dear
Now he's the only one I'm thinkin' of

I let the stars get in my eyes, I let the moon steal my heart
You've been gone so long I couldn't stay at home
What could I do, but give to him my love so dear
Now he's the only one I'm thinkin' of

Too many miles, too many days
Too many nights I was alone
His love was so grand when he held my hand
You know how the moonlight lures you on

I let the stars get in my eyes, I let the moon steal my heart
You've been gone so long I couldn't stay at home
What could I do, but give to him my love so dear
Now he's the only one I'm thinkin' of
