| There was a moon out in space
|
| But a cloud drifted over its face
|
| You kissed me and went on your way
|
| The night we called it a day
|
| I heard the song of the spheres
|
| Like a minor lament in my ears
|
| I hadn’t the heart left to pray
|
| The night we called it a day
|
| Soft through the dark
|
| The hoot of an owl in the sky
|
| Sad though his song
|
| No bluer than he was I
|
| The moon went down, stars were gone
|
| But the sun didn’t rise with the dawn
|
| There wasn’t a thing left to say
|
| The night we called it a day
|
| Soft through the dark
|
| The hoot of an owl in the sky
|
| Sad though his song
|
| No bluer than he was I
|
| The moon went down, stars were gone
|
| But the sun didn’t rise with the dawn
|
| There wasn’t a thing left to say
|
| The night we called it a day |
