"In A Sentimental Mood" lyrics - DUKE ELLINGTON

In a sentimental mood I can see
The stars come thru my room
While your loving attitude is
Like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of ev'ry kiss
Drift a melody so strange and sweet

In this sentimental bliss you make
My Paradise complete
Rose pearls seem to fall
It's all like a dream to call you mine
My heart's lighter thing since you
Made me this night a thing divine

In a sentimental mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt that you'd be
Loving sentimental me

In a sentimental mood I can see
The stars come thru my room
While your loving attitude is
Like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of ev'ry kiss
Drift a melody so strange and sweet

In this sentimental bliss you make
My Paradise complete
Rose pearls seem to fall
It's all like a dream to call you mine
My heart's lighter thing since you
Made me this night a thing divine

In a sentimental mood
I'm within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt that you'd be
Loving sentimental me
