ELLA FITZGERALD
"And The Angels Sing"
(Ziggy Elman / Johnny Mercer)

We meet and the angels sing
The angels sing the sweetest song I ever heard
You speak and the angels sing
Or am I breathing music into every word?

Suddenly, the setting is strange
I can see water and moonlight beaming
Silver waves that break on some undiscovered shore

Then, suddenly, I see it all change
Long winter nights with the candles gleaming
Through it all your face that I adore

You smile and the angels sing
And though it's just a gentle murmur at the start
We kiss and the angels sing
And leave their music ringing in my heart

Suddenly, the setting is strange
I can see water and moonlight beaming
Silver waves that break on some undiscovered shore

Then, suddenly, I see it all change
Long winter nights with the candles gleaming
Through it all your face that I adore

You smile and the angels sing
And though it's just a gentle murmur at the start
We kiss and the angels sing
And leave their music ringing in
And leave their music in, leave their music ringing in my heart

Leave it in my heart, they leave it in my heart
They leave their music in my heart
