Lyrics
Why does the moon in all its glory
Look dim in the skies?
Why? ’cause it’s just the same old story
Of tears in my eyes
Refrain
Moonlight and tears
And then the mist around me clears
Bringing me a vision in moonbeams
Mem’ries overtake me and soon
Dreams recall bygone years
Then in the night it disappears
Leaving me alone in the moonlight
Moonlight and tears
