Moonlight
twilight moonlight
love you so
magic moonbeam
watch you glow
snow-white moonlight
shines right through
window sparkle –
silver blue
spotlight moonlight
love you so
strong and quiet
watch you glow
hold tight, moonlight
hanging high
misty glimmer
in the sky
milk-white moonlight
love you so
crystal shimmer
watch you glow
late night, moonlight
not a peep
warm and snuggly
soon asleep
goodnight, moonlight
heavy eyes
stay bright, moonlight…
Hello, sunrise.
love you so
magic moonbeam
watch you glow
snow-white moonlight
shines right through
window sparkle –
silver blue
spotlight moonlight
love you so
strong and quiet
watch you glow
hold tight, moonlight
hanging high
misty glimmer
in the sky
milk-white moonlight
love you so
crystal shimmer
watch you glow
late night, moonlight
not a peep
warm and snuggly
soon asleep
goodnight, moonlight
heavy eyes
stay bright, moonlight…
Hello, sunrise.
