Fascination - Richard Tauber, Henry Geehl

On the summer night when we met

Just a passing glance, that was a-all you gave me

But a magic power, had me from that hour

And I felt your charm like a mantel enfold me

I tried to forget, all in vane

Ever since I need you like flowers need the dew

Now my loving heart bows to fate in surrender

And forever more I love you

All I need is your bright eyes to shine

While your lips to mine with rapture are pressing

And so now by my side you will stay

And hour already is my greatest blessing

When I’m weary, I’m longing to rest

My head on your breast, my deep love possessing

Your mate, as your my soul, your my fate, your my own

I can only be happy with you

On that summer night when we met (when we met)

Just a passing glance, that was all that you gave me

There and then I fell, 'neith your magic spell

And your fascinator, forever enswayed me

I tried to forget, all in vane

Ever since I need you like flowers need the dew

Now my loving heart bows to fate in surrender

And forever more, I love you

And forever I love…, I love you…
