Blame It On the Moon

Blame it on the moon The moon, who’s intentions, I believe Are not beyond her muses to deceive Casting down her beams so they reflect The postures and the features to perfect For lovers meeting secret sets the scene Colours dim and svelte will be her sheen With shadows for effect she does create So each believe they see their one true mate The atmosphere she shrouds in mystery Adding strings of unheard symphony Sets the mood with melancholy strains Removes all senses common from their brains And yet I find myself, I’m not immune With ease she has me dancing to her tune
