Moonlight Lady

Moonlight Lady, mysterious lady
In your diamond studded gown that glittered star bright
Let me bathe once more in your silvery beauty
Let me hear again your cool laugh, so gay, so light

Well your eyes had touched so gently
On my foolish open heart
And then your lips smiled with loving patience
And golden fantasies tore my reality apart
And did we make love, wonderful love
Or was I losin’ my mind?
’Cause I woke up and you had slipped away
To another world, another time

Moonlight Lady, my beautiful lady
You were a flower blooming in the night
But now the wind in the meadow, sobs like a widow
And a Moon ancient as sorrow is casting
Casting a fading light

I said a lonely Moon as old as sorrow
Is casting a fading light
