Moon, Moon, Moon 1907

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 08 Sep 2005

Nightingales a nestling
in the tree tops high,
little stars a blinking
in the blue night sky.
River is a gleaming
just like silver as it flows,
Flowers all are sleeping
in a dreamless repose.
Lady moon a shining
through the clouds of blue,
I wonder if you're looking
at my sweetheart true?
Wonder if she's watching
and waiting for me?
Tell me, my lady moon.

Moon! Moon! Moon!
Come tell me soon, real soon,
Does my love lie dreaming,
while the bright stars gently shine?
Moon! Moon! Moon!
It won't always be June.
Now tell me true,
what would you do?
Moon! Moon! Moon!

Leaves are all a rustling
where the night wind blows,
Fire bugs a flitting
where the jasmine grows.
Crickets all a chirping
in the grass so full of dew,
Perfume is arising
from the violet blue.
Lady moon a smiling
'way up in the skies,
I wonder if you're looking
at my sweetheart's eyes?
Wonder if she's watching
and waiting for me?
Tell me, my lady moon.

Moon! Moon! Moon!
Come tell me soon, real soon,
Does my love lie dreaming,
while the bright stars gently shine?
Moon! Moon! Moon!
It won't always be June.
Now tell me true,
what would you do?
Moon! Moon! Moon!
