Lyrics Tom Jones - comic opera in 3 Acts, Act III: For Tonight (Waltz song) - New Philharmonia Orchestra , Dame Joan Sutherland , Richard Bonynge




For tonight, for tonight
Let me dream out my dream of delight
Tra-la-la, tra-la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la
And purchase of sorrow a moment's respite
I am fast, like a love that has gazed on the sun in his flight
Let me sing, let me sing
For I waver and swing between madness and gladness tonight
Let me sing
For I swing between madness and gladness tonight
My eyes are dazzled and dazed with a strange delight
I am fast, like a love that has gazed on the sun in his flight
For tonight, for tonight
Let me dream out my dream of delight
Tra-la-la, tra-la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la
And purchase of sorrow a moment's respite
I am fast, like a love that has gazed on the sun in his flight
I waver and swing between madness and gladness tonight
Let me sing
Ah, 'twixt madness and gladness tonight
Ah, ah, ah
