The Precious Hours -

Solitude can bring

Solitude can bring

But no hearts and flowers

Your lilting melodies

To help me ease the pain

Precious hours

Tonight

Tonight I mustn’t think of him

Music, maestro, Please!

Tonight, tonight I must forget

Those precious hours

But no hearts and flowers

Play your lilting melodies

Ragtime, jazz and swing

Any old thing

To help me ease the pain

That solitude can bring

Tonight I mustn’t think of him

Music, maestro, Please!

Tonight, tonight I must forget

Those precious hours

But no hearts and flowers

Play your lilting melodies

Ragtime, jazz and swing

Any old thing

To help me ease the pain

That solitude can bring

Tonight I mustn’t think of him

Music, maestro, Please!

Play your lilting melodies

Ragtime, jazz and swing

Precious hours

Your lilting melodies

Ragtime, jazz and swing
