Glenn Miller's Perfidia

Who really was the King of Swing?

One of Glenn Miller's biggest hits was the love song (lost love) "Perfidia."

Here are the lyrics;

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 take it back with a sigh, perfidious one,

Goodbye...

The vocalists are Dorothy Claire and the Modernaires.
