And the stars were shining
Click to see the original lyrics (Italian)
And the stars were shining,
and the earth was smelling
the garden door squealed
and a step touched the sand.
She was coming in, fragrant,
falling into my arms.
O sweet kisses, languorous caresses,
while I, trembling, released the beautiful figure from its veils!
My dream of love is gone for ever.
The time is gone, and I'm dying in despair!
And I have never before loved life so much.
Tosca - Music by Giacomo Puccini
