The Moon Has No Heart

The moon has no heart
Else why did she fly down the west of the sky
When my lover and I had to part?
The moon has no heart

How sly was her art
To light up the night when our love was still bright
But when from my side he did start
The moon had no heart

He is gone, and I weep
And I never shall sleep
But still, in the West
With her hand on her breast
Not a tear in her eye
She stares from the sky
And I cry-y

The moon has no heart
Else why did she fly down the west of thе sky
When my lover and I had to part?
The moon has no heart

There is a Vine

There is a vine growing on my garden wall
And it is brown and withered in the fall
And in the spring, its leaves are green and blossoms all aflame
But spring or fall, still I love you just the same

There is a gate halfway down my garden wall
And in the night, I lock it, bolts and all
And in the day, it's open wide to all who would come through
But day or night, it is never locked for you

There is a tree growing by my garden gate
And year by year it seems to stand and wait
And here am I, beneath the tree, for I am waiting too
And oh, my love, I will always wait for you

One by One

We go walking in the dark
We go walking out at night
And it's not as lovers go two by two, to and fro
But it's one by one
One by one in the dark

We go walking out at night
As we wander through the grass
We can hear each other pass
But we're far apart
Far apart in the dark

We go walking out at night
With the grass so dark and tall
We are lost past recall
If the moon is down
And the moon is down

We are walking in the dark
If I had your hand in mine
I could shine
I could shine like the morning sun
Like the sun
