Nat “King” Cole
It’s a Beautiful Evening
[Spoken]
And so it begins but you can't have them all
Your heart has to settle down somewhere
And sure enough one night it happens
The crickets, the mockingbirds
The perfume in the air, it's all there
You get the feeling Mother Nature is working overtime
And you say to yourself "this is it"

[Verse 1]
It's a beautiful evening, what a beautiful evening
It's a beautiful evening for falling in love
The moon winked his eye
The stars agree that this is the night for you and me

[Verse 2]
And as soft as a willow every cloud is our pillow
And all heaven and earth know what we're thinking of
And darling they're so right so kiss and hold me tight
It's a beautiful evening for falling in love

[Verse 2 - Altered]
And darling they're so right so kiss and hold me tight
It's a beautiful evening for falling in love
