I've been watching Breakfast At Tiffany again and I'm going to see it again this weekend! Audrey Hepburn beauty is flawless and her performance is so memorable. She sang Moon River in the movie but it was Andy Williams who first recorded the song for the movie.
Listen to Audrey's version here (mp3).
Henry Mancini wrote this song with lyricist Johnny Mercer. He named this song after a river in Savannah, Georgia (USA). (Source: Songfacts).
You'll be able to interpret this song 0nce you've seen the movie.
Moon River
Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Old dream maker, you heart breaker,
Where ever you're going,
I'm going your way.
Two drifters, off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end,
Waiting 'round the bend,
My huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.
