The song is ended (but the melody lingers on)

The song is ended but the melody lingers on
You and the song are gone but the melody lingers on
The night was splended and the melody seemed to say
Summer will pass away take your happiness while you may

There neath the light of the moon
We sang a love song that ended too soon
The moon descended and I found with the break of dawn
You and the song had gone but the melody lingers on

The song is ended...
There neath the light of the moon...
