Lyrics At The Balalaika - 2003 Remastered Version - Richard Tauber , Eric Maschwitz , Herbert Stothart

When the melancholy shadows fall
My heart is melancholy too,
Then I hear the balalaika's call,
And life is gay and bright and new
At the Balalaika
Where there is magic in the sparkling wine,
And merry music in the candles' shine
I have a rendezvous.
At the Balalaika
Who knows what ecstasy tonight may bring
What lovely melody my heart may sing,
Before the night is through.
I hear a violin,
A haunting gipsy violin,
And when it sighs its strangely tender song,
I know that I belong
At the Balalaika
Oh let me linger there till break of day,
Where hearts are young and balalaikas play,
I have a rendezvous!
I hear a violin
A haunting gipsy violin,
And when it sighs its strangely tender song
I know that I belong
At the Balalaika
Oh let me linger there till break of day
Where hearts are young and balalaikas play
I have a rendezvous!
