The Night Is Young And You're So Beautiful
Glenn Osser And His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The night is young and you're so beautiful,
Here among the shadows, beautiful lady, open you heart.
The scene is set, the breezes sing of it,
Can't you get into the swing of it, lady, when do we start?

When the lady is kissable and the evening is cool,
Any dream is permissible in the heart of a fool.
The moon is high and you're so glamorous,
And if I seem over amorous, lady, what can I do?




The night is young and I'm in love with you.

The night is young and you're so beautiful,
It's still early in the night and you, my lovely lady, are stunning.


Here among the shadows, beautiful lady, open your heart.
Right here where it's dark, my beautiful lady, let your heart be open.


The scene is set, the breezes sing of it,
Everything is arranged perfectly and the wind is singing about it.


Can't you get into the swing of it, lady, when do we start?

When the lady is inviting and the weather is pleasant,

The moon is high in the sky and you are so elegant.


And if I seem over amorous, lady, what can I do?
And if I appear overly passionate, my lady, what can I say or do?


The night is young and I'm in love with you.
It's still early in the night and I am deeply in love with you.
