You Were Never Lovelier Lyrics
I was never able to recite a fable
That would make the party bright;
Sitting at the table I was never able
To become the host's delight
But now you've given me my after dinner story
I'll just describe you as you are in all your glory
[Chorus]
You were never lovelier
You were never so fair
Dreams were never lovelier
Pardon me if I stare
Down the sky the moonbeams fly to light your face;
I can only say they chose the proper place
You were never lovelier

And to coin a new phrase;
I was never luckier in my palmiest days
Make a note, and you can quote me
Honor bright
You were never lovelier than you are tonight
[Chorus]
