 Chorus:

 The 11th hour is here

 The hour of parting dear

 

 Hibbler:

 We have one hour my love

 For at midnight we must part

 Soon my love

 You'll obey your wandering heart

 Thrill my lips

 As you've always thrill them

 'Til my lips

 Are mine no more

 

 Hold back the time, my love

 The 11th hour is here

 Hold the time

 While I'm holding back a tear

 I'll be yours

 'Til the last eternity

 Darling, come

 Back to me

 

 Chorus:

 The 11th hour is here

 The hour of parting dear

 

 Hibbler:

 I'll be yours

 'Til the last eternity

 Darling, come

 Back to me

 

 Chorus:

 The 11th hour is here

 The hour of parting dear

 Come back
