Beneath the silver shining moon

1. A girl sang softly on the roof
Beneath the silver moon so bright
To reach the heavens far above
And bring the stars a bit of light

Chorus:
Beneath the silver shining moon
The light will sparkle, dance, and swoon
Let this sweet song of hers be heard
In silence deep without a word

2. Her song, a prayer in the night
To clouds and stars beyond her sight
To wander skies in dreamy flight
And touch the starlight glowing white

Chorus:
Beneath the silver shining moon
We'll float through mists, away from gloom
Above the earth’s forgotten trail
Where dreams, not sorrows, shall prevail

3. The sky comes near, the stars ignite
The moon is filled with tender light
The path with sleepy glow aligned
My songbird, now it's rest you'll find

Chorus:
Beneath the silver shining moon
We'll float through mists, away from gloom
Above the earth’s forgotten trail
Where dreams, not sorrows, shall prevail
