Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one I'll ever love
To many nights (to many nights)
To many stars (to many stars)
To many moons could change your mind
(Don't let the moon change your mind)
If I'm gone too long don't forget where you belong
When the stars come out remember you are mine
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one I'll ever love
(Don't let the stars get in your eyes)
(Don't let the moon break your heart)
To many miles (to many miles)
To many days (to many days)
To many nights to be alone
(To many night all alone)
Oh, please keep your heart while we are apart
Dontcha linger in the moonlight when I'm gone
(While I'm gone)
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
(Don't let the moon break your heart)
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know your the only one I'll ever love
(I'll ever love)
I'll ever love
You're the only one (you're the only one)
I'll ever love

This song by Perry Como takes me back down memory lane to the time when my new fiance and I were temporarily separated by 3 years RAF service. I was demobbed in 1956 and we married in August of that year. This year we will be celebrating our diamond wedding, (God Willing). Thank you for such a nostalgic experience. We are still madly in love after 60 years.XX

There's three things in this song you'll never hear again. A studio filled with musicians that play like that, background vocalists that sound like that, and someone with a voice remotely close to Perry's.

@Ann Pommer I lost both mother and father, 4 brothers and 3 sisters many years ago. Losing my wife of 56 years was the hardest, Thankfully, I have my 2 sons and my grandchildren. As time passes it does get easier It's hardest when I'm home alone. Thank you for caring!

Ann Pommer

@clarence fender My Heart goes Out to You.
I Pray that You're gently Healing & taking Good Care of Yourself. I don't know if this makes sense, but SOMEONE Told me that it doesn't get Better, but It Gets Different. My Dad passed 10 years ago & my Mom 12 years. I Think of Them Every Day. But, it's not a constant pain Anymore. I sometimes Wish They were Here. Then I think of GOD'S WORD. I Believe THEY're no longer in pain or feeling LOST.
I like to listen to the Music; Their Music and Remember Mom singing & Dad giving Her A Hug and A Kiss
Take Care Clarence & Check in Now And Then if You Want.

I am also 80 years old and agree that Perry Como was one of the greatest!! The first time I heard this song was on a cold December 1952 night at the airport in Denver Colorado. I was an Airman Third Class in the USAF reporting for munitions tech school at Lowry AFB. That kicked off my career in the Air Force.

Back in the 40s and 50s we had what was known as "crooners". There was Bing Crosby , Frank Sinatra and Perry Como plus several more. Most people in my neck of the woods had one of these as their pick as a favorite. I must admit, I cannot choose a favorite of these 3 and several others. Thanks for sharing with us. Marcus

I remember when my grandparents brought me this song in 1952, the 78rpm on RCA Victor. I was 3 years old and already could sing it all the way through. It is without question my favorite Perry Como song. Spin it all the time. Wish all these great 50s singers were still singing these classics. This was real music, truly the very best!!!

Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one I'll ever love
To many nights (to many nights)
To many stars (to many stars)
To many moons could change your mind
(Don't let the moon change your mind)
If I'm gone too long don't forget where you belong
When the stars come out remember you are mine
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know you're the only one I'll ever love
(Don't let the stars get in your eyes)
(Don't let the moon break your heart)
To many miles (to many miles)
To many days (to many days)
To many nights to be alone
(To many night all alone)
Oh, please keep your heart while we are apart
Dontcha linger in the moonlight when I'm gone
(While I'm gone)
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Don't let the moon break your heart
(Don't let the moon break your heart)
Love blooms at night
In daylight it dies
Don't let the stars get in your eyes
Or keep your heart from me
For some day I'll return
And you know your the only one I'll ever love
(I'll ever love)

You're the only one (you're the only one)
I'll ever love

On this day in 1952 {November 4th} Perry Como recorded "Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes" at the Manhattan Center studios in New York City... Two months later on January 10th, 1953 it peaked at #1 {for 5 weeks} on Billboard's Best Sellers chart... It was his 7th number one record; between 1945 and 1954 he had eight number one records {and ten times he just missed making #1, for between 1947 and 1958 he had ten records that reached #2}... May he R.I.P. {1912 - 2001}...

Donn Lowe

It wasn't only Perry Como's smooth voice that was the arrangement the music the background vocals it was phenomenal music I loved it when I was a little boy and I still love it now at 71 years old. There are no singers of this quality anymore.

When you have got such a wonderful talent like I have, you feel you need to share it with the world. I have wrote all the Elvis songs, all the Beatles songs, all the Who songs, all the Queen songs, all the Abba songs, all the Madness songs, the Dark side of the moon album, The Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad albums, all the stereophonics songs. The problem was that I couldn't get an agent.. so I didn't make any money. Now I can't afford a solicitor to sue the rock stars for the Royalties.

Such a voice, second only to Bing Crosby's among the great crooners, but those horrible blasts of brass and glee club accompaniment make it almost unlistenable. Guess I've forgotten how naive much of pop music was in the 50's.

I had a huge kid crush on Perry Como. So much so, that the first song I sang on stage (amateur I am) was this..."Don't Let the Stars....". My piano teacher let me pick the song I wanted to sing....I was 6 years old, and was in a talent show. The biggest thrill about it was that was singing this really cool Perry Como song. I loved singing it...I'm 64 and still think he was just fantastic.
