I Wished on the Moon (1955 “Stay With Me” version)

Every night was long and gloomy Shadows gather in the air No one ever listen to me No one wonder did I care None in all the world to love me None to count the stars that hung Then the moon came out above me And I saw that it was young I wished on the moon For something I never knew Wished on the moon For more than I ever knew A sweeter rose, a softer sky On April day That would not dance away I begged of a star To throw me a beam or two Wished on a star And asked for a dream or two I looked for every loveliness It all came true I wished on the moon for you I wished on the moon For something I never knew Wished on the moon For more than I ever knew A sweeter rose, a softer sky On April day That would not dance away I begged of a star To throw me a beam or two Wished on a star And asked for a dream or two I looked for every loveliness It all came true I wished on the moon Wished on the moon For you
