  *++Lyrics:|\\
Golden glowing\\
Lamps are throwing\\
Light above.\\
While the swaying\\
Tune is saying,\\
"Love, love, love!"\\
And the feet of dancers\\
Sounded as they go.\\
Don't you hear them say, "My dear,\\
I love you so!"\\
\\
And with the music's chime,\\
My heart is beating time,\\
As if to give a sign\\
That it would cry\\
"Be mine, be mine!"\\
Though our lips may say no word,\\
Yet in the heart a voice is heard,\\
That seems to whisper soft and low,\\
"I love you so!"\\
\\
Love that hovers\\
Over lovers\\
Speaks in song,\\
In the finger's\\
Clasp that lingers\\
Close and long.\\
And the music answers\\
Swaying to and fro\\
Telling you, "It's true, it's true\\
I love you so!"\\
\\
