The New Moon 1919 Irving Berlin

Beneath a sky of grey
the lovers stroll alone,
The flow'rs have died away,
The birds have hush'd their song,
There's a teardrop in her eye,
for he's come to say goodbye
He whispers, dearie don't you cry,
for I won't be long.

When the new moon is shining
I'm coming back to you,
Clouds have a silvery lining
soon the silver will be peeping thru
Angel hands will be mending
a broken romance soon,
They will bless us with a happy ending
'neath the bright new moon.

When the new moon is shining
I'm coming back to you,
Clouds have a silvery lining
soon the silver will be peeping thru
Angel hands will be mending
a broken romance soon,
They will bless us with a happy ending
'neath the bright new moon.

The clouds will roll away
and then we'll meet again,
A happy wedding day,
will dawn upon us then,
Little sweetheart don't you pine
soon you'll see the new moon shine
A little patience girl of mine
till we meet again.

When the new moon is shining
I'm coming back to you,
Clouds have a silvery lining
soon the silver will be peeping thru
Angel hands will be mending
a broken romance soon,
They will bless us with a happy ending
'neath the bright new moon.

When the new moon is shining
I'm coming back to you,
Clouds have a silvery lining
soon the silver will be peeping thru
Angel hands will be mending
a broken romance soon,
They will bless us with a happy ending
'neath the bright new moon.
