Quarter Moon

Quarter moon - so way up high 
In darkened blue - in morning sky 
It makes me think - when I see blue 
Thoughts of you - how do...you do 

Before the sun - lifts up her nose
And the stars still wink - and the moon still glows 
I close my eyes - and I think my mind 
Searching for - the thoughts to find  

That shows my heart - that shows my love 
From that quarter moon- so high above 
To keep it's glow - on you, my friends 
Even by chance - your life, it ends 

By chance, I'm gone - I flap my wings 
I hope the quarter moon - it still brings 
To all my friends - a glowing light 
To makes your lives - a brighter bright
