I remember when I met you
All the stars were hanging in mid-air
In these moments, nothing mattered

But the way you caught me in your stare

We were walking, we were talking

We were laughing about the state of our lives
How our fates brought us together
As the moon was rising in your eyes


On and on the night was falling
Deep down inside us

On and on a light was shining right through

Ah la luna la luna

The night that we fell under the spell of the moon
Ah la luna la luna
The light that will bring me back to you

The light of la luna



In the hotels, in the cafes
All the world was mad with romance
In the harbor moonlit water

All the ships were swaying in a dance

Then you held me and you kissed me

And I knew I had to be with you
You didn't ask me, you just took me
To the tiny bed in your tiny room


On and on the band was playing
A song of surrender

On and on the sun would soon break through

Ah la luna la luna

The night that we fell under the spell of the moon
Ah la luna la luna
The light that will bring me back to you


Ah la luna la luna
The night that we fell under the spell of the moon

Ah la luna la luna
The light that will bring me back to you
The light of la luna


Now I walk along the streets of Marseilles
The winter sky is cold and gray

And I don't know why I left you that day
And I don't know where you are


Ah la luna la luna
The night that we fell under the spell of the moon
Ah la luna la luna

The light that will bring me back to you

Ah la luna la luna

The night that we fell under the spell of the moon
Ah la luna la luna
The light that will bring me back to you
