(mandolins in the moonlight!
Beautiful music of love!)

Were not in venice,
In a gondola,
Beneath the skies of blue,
And yet it seems were there signorina
An I'm close to you!

Cause I hear mandolins in the moonlight,
Mandolins in the moonlight!
See what magic you start?
A song of italy sings
In perfect tune with the strings
Of my heart!

We wont be tossin
Coins in the fountain
Down in rome tonight
And yet my dreams come true signorina
When you hold me tight!

Cause I hear mandolins in the moonlight,
Mandolins in the moonlight!
See what magic you start?
A song of italy sings
In perfect tune with the strings
Of my heart!

Now, heres the way
They whisper I love you
Down in napoli
Ti voglio bene mia signorina
And thata goes for me!

Cause I hear mandolins in the moonlight,
Mandolins in the moonlight!
See what magic you start?
A song of italy sings
In perfect tune with the strings
Of my heart!

Mandolins in the moonlight,
Beautiful music of love!
