When I was very, very young, and heard this song, on the radio, the melody always made me cry, because it was so beautiful; now that I have been fortunate enough, to hear it sung, by the exquisite vocals, of Carly Simon, it conjures up all of my memories of this song, and her incredible rendition of this piece of music, and I find myself, playing it over, and over, again. I thank you, Carly, for this memory, which will never end. Additional props to the fabulous orchestra; especially the incredible sax (my favorite), and clarinet!
I thank you, Carly, for your music.

I stand at your gate
And the song that I sing is of moonlight
I stand and I wait
For the touch of your hand in the June night
The roses are sighing a moonlight serenade
The stars are aglow
And tonight how their light sets me dreaming
My love, do you know
That your eyes are like stars brightly beaming
I bring you, I sing you a moonlight serenade
Let us stray 'til break of day
In love's valley of dreams
Just you and I, a summer sky
A heavenly breeze, kissin' the trees
So don't let me wait
Come to me tenderly in the June night
I stand at your gate
And I sing you a song in the moonlight
A love song, my darling, a moonlight serenade

This is how a great singer performs. No twerking. No profanities. No auto tune gimmicks. Just beautiful vocals backed by a smooth as honey orchestra. Makes one want to wear a tuxedo and dance with his lady to breathtaking music.

An artist and a song from a bygone era. I can remember my parents waltzing to this and other Glenn Miller songs! The music of the 30s and 40s was superb!
