Perfidia Lyrics

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

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
