Lyrics[]
Tony:
For this is the night, it's a beautiful night
And we call it bella notte
Look at the skies, they have stars in their eyes
On this lovely bella notte.
Side by side with your loved one,
You'll find enchantment here.
The night will weave its magic spell,
When the one you love is near!
Both:
For this is the night, and the heavens are right
On this lovely bella notte!
