Lyrics:
Brightly the moon is gleaming
over the silent night,
Starlight, your eyes are beaming
Filled with the old love light,
Long ere the dawn is waking,
Long ere the day grows bright,
Altho' our hearts are breaking,
Starlight we part tonight.
chorus:
Goodnight, my Starlight,
Heart of my heart
You'll be my star bright
Tho' we're far apart
And when you're lonely
My heart's delight
Dream of your true love,
Good night Starlight.
Starlight, why are you sighing
Hark to the distant drum,
Sweethearts are softly crying
Homeward the heroes come,
Search thro' the line returning,
Gaze at each face again,
Starlight your heart is yearning,
Yearning for one in vain.
