A Lovely Night

[ELLA]

A lovely night

A lovely night

A finer night you know you’ll never see

You meet your prince

A charming prince

As charming as a prince will ever be!

The stars in a hazy heaven

Tremble above you

While he is whispering

“Darling, I love you!”

You say good-bye

Away you fly

But on your lips you keep a kiss

All your life you’ll dream of this

Lovely, lovely night

[MADAME]

Charlotte, play the pianoforte

[CHARLOTTE, spoken]

Okay, but it’s not going to be good

(sung)

A lovely night

A lovely night

A finer night you know you’ll never see

[CHARLOTTE & GABRIELLE]

La la la, la la la, la la la

[ALL]

You meet (you meet) your prince (your prince)

A charming (a charming) prince

As charming as a prince will ever be!

[CHARLOTTE & GABRIELLE]

La la la la la la la la la

[ALL]

The stars in a hazy heaven

Tremble above you

While he is whispering

[MADAME]

“Darling, I love you!”

[ALL]

You say good-bye

Away you fly

[GABRIELLE & ELLA]

But on your lips you keep a kiss

[MADAME & CHARLOTTE]

All of your life you’ll dream of this

[ALL]

Lovely, lovely night

*[instrumental]*

[ALL]

The stars in a hazy heaven

Tremble above you

While he is whisp’ring

[GABRIELLE (as the Prince)]

“Darling, I love you”

[ALL]

You say goodbye

Away you fly

But on your lips you keep a kiss

All your life you dream of this

Lovely, lovely, lovely

Lovely night!
