: I've liked "And The Angels Sing" for quite a while. I have never
seen or heard a verse to this song in the sheet music or on recordings of it. I
was wondering if a verse was ever written for this song, and if so, was it ever
in a publication or recording of the song?
Look at the 5-11-98 postings from Thomas Molzahn.
He 'sent' me the words to 'And the angels sing' at that time.

Sure. I know the song well, but for complete accuracy, I have pulled out the
sheet music.
Lyrics by Johnny Mercer
Music by Ziggy Elman
Written in 1939
We meet, and the angels sing,
The angels sing the sweetest song I ever heard.
You speak, and the angels sing,
Or am I breathing music into ev'ry word?
Suddenly the setting is strange,
I can see water and moonlight beaming,
Silver waves that break on some undiscovered shore;
Then suddenly I see it all change,
Long winter nights with the candles gleaming,
Thru it all your face that I adore.
You smile, and the angels sing,
And 'tho it's just a gentle murmur at the start.
We kiss, and the angels sing,
And leave their music ringing in my heart.
E-mail me for a MIDI file I made of the original piano score.

Dear Joe,
I said once before and I say once more: Johnny Mercer is the American Hölderlin!
Enjoy those wonderful lyric with impressionistic expressions like "silver
waves...":
We meet, And The Angels Sing.
The Angels Sing the sweetest song I ever heard.
You speak, And The Angels Sing,
or am I breathing music into ev'ry word.
Suddenly, the setting is strange,
I can water and moonlight beaming,
silver waves that break on some undiscovered shore;
then suddenly I see it all change,
long winter nights with the candles gleaming,
thru it all your face that I adore.
You smile, And The Angel Sing
And 'tho it's just a gentle murmur at the start,
We kiss, And The Angels Sing
and leave their music ringing in my heart.
