The Moon And I

The moon and I, we know each other well

I'm safe beneath its light

It passes by, and sees but doesn't tell

The secrets of the night

Like the sweet forbidden feelings deep inside me

The longing for the lover, who's denied me

To feel him, beside me

The moon and I, pretend he's in my arms

Each night it hears me cry

And when I sleep, I dream that soon

I'll tell my love, some sunlit afternoon

What no one knows, but the moon and I

[Interlude]

And just as the sea, with its tides

I'm tied to the moon, when its full

So am I

The moon and I, pretend he's in my arms

Each night it hears us cry

And when I sleep, I dream that soon

I'll tell my love, some sunlit afternoon
