Lyrics

Underneath that Oriental Moon,
That's where all sentimental lovers spoon,
I can't forget That's where I met A fascinating little maid,
Who sang a song to me And now I love her, I'm afraid.

CHORUS:
There 'neath that moon,
In that land where this maid came to me
I left her there
And her smile in my dreams I still see.
She's in my heart
And I hear her hum that wonderful tune,
That she sang while underneath that Oriental moon.

CODA:
And now my little tale I've told to you,
Believe it if you like,
I'm only telling what is true!
