From the recording Classical Moments - Frozen in Time
This is the song that Paula learned when she was a teenager. Her teacher Sue Makuno at the time, took her to a competition and Paula won the top honor of Command Performance - Even got a Medal. This was the beginning of a long Operatic Singing Career of over 40 years.
Lyrics
Romance
The full moon shines on mountaintops -
How badly I missed you!
Oh, heart, so sweet! How lovely it is
When faithfulness kisses truly.
What good is May's sweet loveliness?
You were my beam of vernal sun!
Light of my night, come, smile at me
in death just one more time.
She entered in the full moon's light,
she then looked heavenwards;
"Whilst living, far - in death I'm yours!"
And peacefully two hearts broke.
