In the lonely dark night hanged the moon in the sky,
And we looked to the moonlight that shineth so bright.
And my love like the moonlight we will never say goodbye...
For the beauty of the moon lies not with the light.

But the moon as they say doesn't stay bright all day,
And its light like the rose is soon to fade away.
And troubles will come but troubles don't stay...
Darling like the moon we will prosper if we may.

And the moon as they say it belongs to the sun,
If the sun so decides it will stay dark all night.
And darling like the moon we depend in God's light;
By his will and love our lives have begun.

I should take you to the cliff by the beautiful sea,
And beautiful stars in the night we will see.
But the moon in the summer will always stay black...
But darling still we'll fly to the moon and back.
