The stars are burning |
|
and the moon is shining bright, |
|
The world is turning underneath |
|
this canopy of night . . . |
|
Somewhere tomorrow warms the distance |
|
with the light of dawn, |
|
You yawn, my love, |
|
Your eyes are growing tired, |
|
The dawn must come although we will deny it . . . |
|
I'd like to hold you here |
|
beneath these clouds of darkest blue . . . |
|
It could be a million years |
|
before the day comes creepin through, |
|
But in the meantime |
|
Let the moonshine shine |
|
I'm fine, my love, but tell me, |
|
How are you . . . ? |
|
You know that in the end it all comes true . . . |
|
Heavenly homes are hard to find, |
|
Heavenly thoughts in heavenly minds |
|
Are not the worlds' design. |
