Moonlight
Two of us meet at end of day/On the rugged mountain pathway/Beneath a dead tree gnarled and grey/While the crooked river falls away/The night is so clear/The stars are so near/The moon is so still/We gaze our fill/In the chill evening air/Lay you hand upon my shoulder/Where the fallen leaves molder/And I will lean upon my walking cane/Watching the moon wax and wane/And if we listen closely we can hear the wind/Whisper to the widows of the night/And all the lonely ghosts will leave their mountain home/To gather round our dying lantern light/Now of all the world below us/There is only what the darkness shows us/Nothing but the pale moon knows us/In the light it bestows on us/And all we have lost/And all we have won/And all we have been/And all we’ve become/Like the day is now done/Two of us meet at close of day/On the rugged mountain pathway/Beneath a dead tree gnarled and grey/While the crooked river falls away/Falls away
