Perfidia tonight
Jimmy dorsey
To you my heart cries out perfidia
For I found you the love of my life
In somebody else's arms
Your eyes are echoing perfidia
Forgetful of our promise of love
You're sharing another's charms
With a sad lament my dreams
Have faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now I know my love was not for you
And so I'll take it back with a sigh
Perfidious one good-bye
