Vaughn began his professional music career in 1952, forming the vocal quartet the Hilltoppers with Don McGuire, Jimmy Sacca, and Seymour Speigelman. From 1952 to 1957, the Hilltoppers had numerous hit singles, beginning with Vaughn's song "Trying." He left the group in 1955 to join Dot Records as a musical director.
Vaughn was responsible for most of Dot's biggest hits of the '50s as he rearranged popular rock & roll and R&B songs for white, mainstream groups. His first success was with the Fontane Sisters, who sang with his orchestra on all their singles, including their 1954 breakthrough hit "Hearts of Stone." However, Dot's biggest success was Pat Boone, who had a series of hits with Vaughn's cleaned-up arrangements of rock & roll songs.

Billy Vaughn and His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nunca sabré cómo tu alma ha encendido mi noche
Nunca sabré el milagro de amor que ha nacido por tí
Luna de miel
Nunca sabré por qué siento tu pulso en mis venas
Nunca sabré en qué viento llegó este querer
Besa tu suelo, reza en tu cielo, late en tu sien
Ya siempre unidos, ya siempre, mi corazón con tu amor
Yo sé que el tiempo es la brisa que dice a tu alma:
Ven hacia mí, así el día vendrá que amanece por ti
La luna de miel
Nunca sabré qué misterio nos trae esta noche
Nunca sabré cómo vino esta luna de miel
La luna brilla en tus ojos y con mi desvelo
Besa en tu suelo, reza en tu cielo, late en tu sien
Ya siempre unidos, ya siempre, mi corazón con tu amor
Yo sé que el tiempo es la brisa que dice a tu alma:
Ven hacia mí, así el día vendrá que amanece por ti
La luna de miel
Luna de miel

Over 50 years ago I heard this recording for the first time. I was already a huge fan of Billy Vaughn, this album with Autumn Love Song, Claire de Lune, Blue Tomorrow, and Come September were to me his artistic triumph. Thank you maynardcat for sharing beautiful memories.

Billy Vaughn certainly had a unique style all his own. I have more Billy Vaughn albums, and I've found that most songs from this album are not posted, so I will upload a few more.
