So mournful was her cry
Lamenting was her tune
As she scanned the darkened sky
Searching for the moon
Oh, moon, the sun is your sister.
Why can't you be kind like she?
Oh, moon, be good to me, mister.
Light up the night for me.
Oh, moon, the stars blink so sadly,
dot the sky so aimlessly.
Oh, moon,
they need your help badly,
light up the nights for me.
How can I win my love
with no help from above?
The sun and stars do shine,
why don't you fall in line?
Oh, moon, the sun rules,
it's right time,
light's the day for all to see.
Oh, you're king of the night time,
light up the way for me.
How can I win my love
with no help from above?
The sun and stars do shine,
why don't you fall in line?
Oh, moon, the sun rules, it's right time,
lights the day for all to see.
Mr. Moon, you're king of the night time,
light up the way for me.
