The Song Is Ended (But The Melody Lingers On)

The Song Is Ended (But the Melody Lingers On) - Nat King Cole

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

But the melody lingers on

You and the song are gone

But the melody lingers on

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 it 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

But the melody lingers on
