Dawn is breaking
Birds are waking,
There's no mistaking,
another night has gone.
Sun beams waiting,
Moon beams fading,
Lovers who tried to be good,
are singing
their good night song.

Good night moon
sleep tight, sweet moon.
O'er the blue horizon,
can't you hear them harmonizin'
Love's sweet tune.
Tired moon
you leave too soon
lonely hours we're countin'
while you hide
beyond the mountain,
Good night Moon!

Good night moon
sleep tight, sweet moon.
Hearts would beat much stronger
if you'd only linger longer
wake up soon.
The world's in tune,
when lovers croon
while the dew is falling
can't you hear
those sweethearts calling
Good night Moon!

Moon man viewing,
Lovers wooing,
vows they're renewing
he's often heard before.
Moon man dozing,
eyes are closing,
this dreamy lullaby tune
those lovers will croon once more.

Good night moon
sleep tight, sweet moon.
O'er the blue horizon,
can't you hear them harmonizin'
Love's sweet tune.
Tired moon
you leave too soon
lonely hours we're countin'
while you hide
beyond the mountain,
Good night Moon!

Good night moon
sleep tight, sweet moon.
Hearts would beat much stronger
if you'd only linger longer
wake up soon.
The world's in tune,
when lovers croon
while the dew is falling
can't you hear
those sweethearts calling
Good night Moon!
