Lyrics

[00:00.374] The moon will rise but all in vain
[00:10.934] For there's no use in shining
[00:19.310] While my lady sleeps
[00:29.401] The breeze will sing a sad refrain
[00:41.870] Because her heart is pining
[00:51.189] While my lay sleeps
[01:02.501] Starlight and moonlight
[01:08.677] And amorous melody wasted
[01:15.581] What can they mean when I'm yearning
[01:27.413] For kisses never tasted
[01:36.590] The night may hold a million dreams
[01:47.509] But when her eyes discover
[01:56.433] Just a lonely lover
[02:04.781] She will hurry on
[02:14.340] With a sigh to the dawn
[02:23.036] While the willow tree weeps
[02:31.110] And my lady sleeps
