"Pianissimo" Lyrics

The melody was played "pianissimo"
The harmony was so very sweet
I can't remember the name of that song
But I do remember dancing in your arms

And then a voice came through "pianissimo"
With lovely words that seemed to repeat
I love you darlin' but all I recall
Are the words you whispered dancing in my arms

"Pianissimo" means "soft n' low"
And soft and low were your sighs
Darling, now I know that tender glow
Was love shining in your eyes

And then we stole away "pianissimo"
And kissed goodnight while stars danced above
I can't remember the name of that song
But I do recall it helped us fall in love

< instrumental break >

hmmm . . .

And then we stole away "pianissimo"
And kissed goodnight while stars danced above
I can't remember the name of that song
But I do recall it helped us fall in love
