When the night is wrapped around us
And the dawn might come too soon
When the only light that's found us
Is the solitary moon
When the songbird in the willow
Sings a soft and soulful tune
Once again you share my pillow
Making love to me
Tenderly
Here, as we share
The silent moon

As it slowly sails above us
In it's solitary flight
Seems the moon must surely love us
As it bathes us in its light
Say that we can spend the day here
Through a sunlit afternoon
Let your kisses say you'll stay here
And make love to me
Tenderly
Here, as we share
The silent moon

Say that we can spend the day here
Through a sunlit afternoon
Let your kisses say you'll stay here
And make love to me
Tenderly
Here, as we share
The silent moon
The solitary moon
Tender, loving moon
The solitary moon
