Moonlight

Never have I ever, gazed so long into the night

To see nothing, just a patch of heavenly light

But to call it a patch, I would be unfair to you

For you, moonlight, are the queen of the dark sky

Your pearls twinkle aimlessly above

Like jewels of pure and soothing love

But none can match the peaceful view

Of your face’s splendid cove

Shine, shine and shine so brilliantly

The vices of my land are set aside subtly

Your tantalizing call to join you up there

Makes me wish that the night goes endlessly

O’ the queen of the night sky

What captivating spell have you cast tonight?

All my dreams seem so trifling now

I just wish I could jump a little bit high

The subtle savor of your innocent light

As it shines on me ever so bright

Makes me never want to look back

From the calming peace of this sumptuous night

O’ moonlight, dawn is away only a blink of an eye

The end of this night seems a white lie

Don’t let tomorrow’s be incomplete without you

For you, moonlight, are the queen of the dark sky!
