Lyrics
And I’ve seen the moonlightDance on the oceanLike a silver ballet that unfoldsI’ve seen the bright lightsOf old New York CityThere’s nothing in the world that shinesLike the love in your eyesLike the love in your eyesThere ain’t no diamondThat ever has sparkledThere ain’t no star that shinesLike the love in your eyesLike the love in your eyes
