I stand at your gate
And the song that I sing is of moonlight
I stand and I wait
For the touch of your hand in the June light
The roses are sighing
A moonlight serenade

The stars are aglow
And tonight, how their light
Sets me dreaming
My love do you know
That your eyes are like stars
Brightly beaming
I bring you and sing you
A moonlight serenade

Let us stray 'til break of day
In love's valley of dreams
Just you and I
A summer sky
A heavenly breeze
Kissing the trees

So don't let me wait
Come to me tenderly in the June night
I stand at your gate
And I sing you a song in the moonlight
A love song, my darling
A moonlight serenade
So don't let me wait
Come to me tenderly in the June night
I stand at your gate
And I sing you a song in the moonlight
A love song, my darling
A moonlight serenade
A moonlight serenade
