André Previn And His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
Too many nights (too many nights)
Too many stars (too many stars)
Too 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)
Too many miles (too many miles)
Too many days (too many days)
Too many nights too be alone
(Too 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
The lyrics of "Lost In The Stars" by André Previn And His Orchestra convey a message about the importance of staying grounded and not letting external influences like stars and the moon cloud one's judgment and heart. The song suggests that love has a greater chance of blossoming at night when everything is calm and quiet, but it warns against letting that love falter during the harsh light of day. The chorus urges the listener not to be swayed by the vastness of the universe and to remember their commitment to the person singing the song.
The verses expand on this theme, highlighting the fear of being apart for too long and how distance can test a relationship. It emphasizes the need for loyalty and trust, not giving in to temptations or distractions that may arise in the absence of the singer. The final repetition of the chorus reinforces the idea that the listener is the only one the singer will ever love.
Overall, "Lost In The Stars" serves as a reminder to stay true to one's love, even when faced with the vastness and beauty of the universe.
