Desperate Moonlight

Desperate Moonlight Shining down upon Upon faces full of unhappiness And smiles that have withdrawn Man on the moon never frowns For he is forever frozen in time With a wink from his half moon Happiness no one can deny Sitting outside a dark window A child timidly awaits Waiting for the moon to shine down And show his undeniable fate Happiness is certain while the moon shines down Not an unhappy face to be showing Not a frown to be found Desperate Moonlight seeks out For its time is not long Slowly gliding above the stars Getting ready to leave before dawn Desperate moonlight disappears With no promises to be seen again Unhappy faces keep waiting To see that man on the moons happy grin
