Song lyrics to “A Lovely Way to Spend an Evening” (1943) – music by Jimmy McHugh and lyrics by Harold Adamson, published. It was used in the Sinatra film Higher and Higher
This is a lovely way to spend an evening
Can’t think of anything I’d rather do
This is a lovely way to spend an evening
Can’t think of anyone as lovely as you
A casual stroll through a garden
A kiss by a lazy lagoon
Catching a breath of moonlight
Humming our favorite tune
This is a lovely way to spend an evening
I want to save all my nights and spend them with you
This is a lovely way to spend an evening
Can’t think of anything I’d rather do
This is a lovely way to spend an evening
I want to save all my nights and spend them with you
