|
Every night was long and gloomy, shadows gathered in the air |
|
No one ever listened to me, no one wondered did I care |
|
None in all the world to love me, none to count that stars that hung |
|
Then the moon came out above me and I saw that it was young |
|
I wished on the moon for something I never knew |
|
Wished on the moon for more than I ever knew |
|
A sweeter rose, a softer sky |
|
An April day that would not dance away |
|
I begged of a star to throw me a beam or two |
|
Wished on a star and asked for a dream or two |
|
I looked for ev'ry loveliness, it all came true |
|
I wished on the moon for you |
