[1st verse:]

Beneath a sky of gray

The lovers stroll along

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 good-bye

He whispers "Dearie, don't you cry

For I won't be long"

[Chorus:]

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

[2nd verse:]

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
