Lyrics for The Song Is Ended

The song is ended But the melody lingers on You and the song are gone But the melody lingers on The night was splendid And the melody seemed to say Summer will pass away Take your happiness while you may There, 'neath the light of the moon We sang a love song that ended too soon The moon descended And I found with the break of dawn You and the song had gone But the melody lingers on And on, and on, and on And on, and on There, 'neath the light of the moon We sang a love song that ended too soon The moon descended And I found with the break of dawn You and the song had gone But the melody lingers on And on, and on, and on, and on And on, on and on
