    Lyrics:
    I stand at your gate and the song that I sing is of moonlight
    I stand and I wait for the touch of your hand in the June night
    The roses are sighing a Moonlight Serenade
    The stars are aglow and tonight how their light sets me dreaming
    My love, do you know that your eyes are like stars brightly beaming?
    I bring you and sing you a Moonlight Serenade
    Let us stray till break of day
    In love's valley of dreams
    Just you and I, a summer sky
    A heavenly breeze kissing the trees
    So don't let me wait, come to me tenderly in the June night
    I stand at your gate and I sing you a song in the moonlight
    A love song, my darling, a Moonlight Serenade

    My mom passed away tonight. She was 98. This was her favorite song. We played this song on our phone, put it next to her ear, she took a deep breath and then she was gone. I know that she felt safe and at peace.

    The first time I heard this I was sitting in my grandfather's lap as a little boy of four. My grandfather was a veteran of the Pacific Campaign during World War II born in 1922. We used to solve crossword puzzles together and that was always our thing. I'm now in my 30's. Hearing this always harkens back to some of my earliest memories of my grandfather. He was a skilled carpenter and machinist in particular but understood all trades. He sadly passed away due to injuries he sustained in a car accident in 1998 when I was 9 years old. To me, he typifies the Greatest Generation who fought to end fascism and forge a better world that we enjoy today. RIP Perry Howe

      Someone else here said, "Makes me nostalgic for a time I wasn't even born in." I agree. When this song was popular America was at war and each moment was precious because it might be your last ones. Americans had survived the Great Depression and when it was finally winding down, they found themselves in a new, world war. That generation had mighty stuggles but they overcame them thru a firm resolve in themselves and their way of life. I hear this melody and I think about brave American men and women and I thank God for them. I wish we had such men and women now.

      My Dad did that too in PA -- they would go to various ballrooms around southeast of PA and see all the big bands; it would get so crowded they would not dance, but just stand there and listen. Dad had his own little big band club in the Army when he was overseas in WW2. Anytime I hear Glenn Miller I think of my Dad and I hope there is plenty of Glenn Miller music in heaven -- if so he will be in paradise. In a little outfit newsletter it said that if anyone liked jazz they could come to their meetings but that they DID favor Bing Crosby over that new kid Frank Sinatra. To them, Bing's crooning went with this music.

    I was 5 years old. In 1949 I was flying with my parents from Yokohama to Southampton in a Sunderland Empress Flying Boat. We stopped at many ports including Hong Kong. My parents were hosted at the Peak. There was a party with music. I was already in bed but I sneaked out to the corridor and looked down at the dancing guests. My parents were in each others arms moving together to the music. They looked happy. This made me feel happy and safe. Later I would learn that the music was by Glenn Miller and my mum and dad were dancing to this tune.

    This Glenn Miller song “Moonlight Serenade” was one of my Mom’s favorite songs.
    She Loved Big Band music as a child in the 30’s and a teen ager during WWII.
    She and my Dad would listen to Benny Goodman, Gene Krupa, Woody Herman, Spike Jones, The Dorsey Brothers Big Band, Buddy Rich and of course Glenn Miller.
    She’s the reason I’m a drummer.
    I had this tune playing for my Mom & Dad on their 53rd wedding anniversary.
    My dear Dad passed in 2006.
    Last Wednesday June 5 in the early morning at 2:53 my dear sweet Mom went home to be with Christ Jesus and reunite with my Dad.
    I so wish I could have played Glenn Miller’s “Moonlight Serenade” one more time for her.
    She loved it so.
    Thank You Mom & Dad for being such wonderful loving godly parents and Thank You Lord for magnificent beautiful parents.❤❤🕊️
