Serenade
Our love is the serenade
A song the heavens made and angels played
When first we kissed
We touched and I became divine my love
Because of you the stars that shine my love
Their mine my love
Serenade
Our love is the serenade
A song of sweet desire
No ordinary choir could quite resist
I have known the magic of




A theme that cannot take
Our serenade of love

I’m 90 years old.... I heard Mario Lanza In person in Chicago in 1950 and head the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard in my long life of listening to beautiful voices! ❤️👵

@CR-ty5eg

i was lucky enough to hear Pavraotti, Domingo but not Carreras. All are beautiful and I can understand the phrase 'blessed by angels' but there are a couple of others blessed: Jussi Bjorling and of course Caruso.
