Song of a Summer Night
[DOC, spoken]
It's that kind of night. A beautiful night. You can hear it in the air.
(sung)
All nature seems to know
There are two lovers tonight
There are two lovers tonight hereabouts
All nature seems to know
And sing her song
Her tender song
That all is well
And all is right
