Glenn Miller
Written by Austen Croom, Johnson, Nick Kenny and Charles Kenny
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on September 11th, 1939 with Ray Eberle
Last night, I touched your fingertips
And when I touched your lips
I fell in love last night
Last night, I felt your heart beat fast
Swiftly the moments passed
Why couldnt it last last night?
Tonight here I am all alone
My lovely dream has flown
Why must I be alone?
Last night, why did we say goodbye?
My heart keeps asking why,
Why couldnt it last last night?
