MOONSHINE Lyrics

RODGERS/KOSSOFF




Sitting in a graveyard 
waiting for the dawn 
leaning on my tombstone 
till the night is gone 

Oh how the moon 
hangs in black sky 
wish i could find out 
the reason why 
I sit here alone 
and cry 

My woman was so lovely 
together we were one 
no sunshine in my weary eyes 
now that she has gone 

Oh how the moon 
hangs in black sky 
wish I could find out 
the reason why 
I sit here alone 
and cry 

Palm trees whisper to me 
from your spreading height 
tell me all the loney stories 
of the world at night 

Oh how the moon 
hangs in black sky 
wish I could find out 
the reason why 

I sit here alone 
and cry.
