The Secret of the Moon

The Secret Of The Moon The Moon sets in the west Sinking below a distant horizon Does she see the Moon rising in the east Could there be a second in time A second where we both look upon the same Moon So far away her eyes look at the lonely sphere Does she know the tears I shed looking at it Dreaming that she is looking into her eyes I may never know The Moon is a silent mistress Keeping her secrets from mortal man Even the one of a woman's love Yet, every night I will watch her float across the sky I will dream that she is doing the same While thinking of me, my heart and my love That is the only wish I make under the light of the Moon Maybe someday it will come true and she will see my love The Moon with a secret that she may wish to share And all will be made good under the gray light And she will smile at the Moon and thank her
