It was fascination, my Dear,
I was in a paradise when you were near,
I was all aglow,  More than you could know;
It was just a dream,  Now I see things more clearly,
It was fascination, that's true,
There I was entranced by the starlight and you,
Then you turned away, love, and oh, when you left me,
Fascination vanished too.
