A beauty by a dynamic duo with Johnny Mercer using the pseudonym of Joe Moore. An early recording made by Carmichael and his orchestra with Dick Robertson as vocalist.

For Educational and research-

Her the sleepy bells up in the tower Ringing out the magic midnight hour. As the echo dies, And I close my eyes, You come stealing into the room.

After twelve o'clock When all is still, Heaven sends a dream, Then comes the thrill. I see you standing before me, Just as you used to do. After twelve o'clock You hold my hand, Then we steal away Through wonderland. Without a word you adore me, Just as you used to do. Each night you bring me Your lovely charms again. And oh how real they seem. I long to cradle you In my arms again, Even though you're only a dream I hold you. After twelve o'clock, You whisper this; "I belong to you", And then we kiss. Each night you take me to heaven Just as you used to do.
