Gentle moon why idle be
All night when man and beast are fast asleep
Why choose to be alone to see
While friends wait to show you love so deep
Precious diamond kneeling by heavens gate
Watching as though you see me in my bed
Or want a room as mine
And while I dream to fly away
Seeing you still awake to spy
At all that be beneath
You are the eyes at night when all is blind
And all lost earth forms of sight
Enduring to put your light all night
To travelers sailors at sea
All are grateful that you do not blink
Though you be lonely we are glad to be your friends
To remember you at sunset
When you return into your hiding place
When heat is come with hateful stress
We do hope to see you again and soon
At the other side of town blue moon
