The Song Is Ended

Ella Fitzgerald · Ella Fitzgerald Sings The Irving Berlin Songbook, Vol. 2 [1990]

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

And on, and on, and on, and on, and on

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

And on, and on, and on, and on, and on, on and on
