Tony Bennett - Twilight World Lyrics






Twilight world
Over the China sea
Sings me a melody
From ages ago

In a twilight world
Watching the sampans pass
I fill a frosty glass
As lanterns burn low

Life is a changing panorama
Love is a dancing butterfly
Catch them both while we may
Come to Spain or Cathay
I don’t want to miss that will o’ the wisp
Passing by

Life is holding out a twilight world
Don’t let it slip away
Come take it while we may
Make it begin

Let’s find our twilight world
Before the night sets in

    This song is a masterpiece of mood and melody and complex jazz arrangements combining strings and horns beautifully. The best part is Tony Bennett's masterful singing which is in a class by itself.
