Nelson Eddy

Nelson Ackerman Eddy (June 29, 1901 – March 6, 1967) was an American singer and actor who appeared in 19 musical films during the 1930s and 1940s, as well as in opera and on the concert stage, radio, television, and in nightclubs. A classically trained baritone, he is best remembered for the eight films in which he costarred with soprano Jeanette MacDonald. He was one of the first "crossover" stars, a superstar appealing both to shrieking bobby-soxers as well as opera purists, and in his heyday was the highest paid singer in the world. more »

Love came to me
Gay and tender
Love came to me
Sweet surrender

Love came to me
In bright romantic splendor
Fickle was she
Faithful never

Fickle was she
And clever
So will it be, forever, forever
Softly, as in a morning sunrise

The light of love comes stealing
Into a new born day, oh
Flaming with all the glow of sunrise
A burning kiss is sealing

The vow that all betray
For the passions that thrill love
And lift you high to heaven
Are the passions that kill love

And let you fall to hell
So ends the story
Softly, as in an evening sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away
