Melody Moon 1920

One night in June
I watched the moon
high in the sky
it shone so bright,
making day of night.
Sweet melodies,
on summer breeze,
haunt me, taunt me
fill me with delight.

I want you Melody Moon
Keep on a smiling.
Melody Moon
way up above.
When you're away
for you I'm pining.
Your silver beams, so it seems
bringing me dreams
fill me with thoughts of love.
Melody moon
tho' clouds may hide you.
Melody Moon
still I know you're there.
And till the clouds roll away
I will watch and pray
that you'll shine for a fellow,
mellow Melody Moon.

I want you Melody Moon
Keep on a smiling.
Melody Moon
way up above.
When you're away
for you I'm pining.
Your silver beams, so it seems
bringing me dreams
fill me with thoughts of love.
Melody moon
tho' clouds may hide you.
Melody Moon
still I know you're there.
And till the clouds roll away
I will watch and pray
that you'll shine for a fellow,
mellow Melody Moon.
