[Verse 1]
The moon is slowly rising
It's really not surprising
After all, she's there most every night
Smiling on the lovers
Always shining on the others
And bathing in the sun's reflected light
[Chorus 1]
But later on she's fade away
Hidden by the break of day
That always comes too soon
Poor little thing
She's just a jealous moon
[Verse 2]
She plays above the water
Watching sailors, tramps and daughters
Live their lives and slowly fade away
Night afternight, year after year
Once she knows she'll disappear
Into a world she never gets to stay
[Chorus 2]
But she would give most anything
To open up her heart and sing
But no one hears her tune
Poor little thing
She's just a jealous moon
The moon is slowly rising
It's really not surprising
After all, she's there most every night
Smiling on the lovers
Always shining on the others
And bathing in the sun's reflected light
[Chorus 1]
But later on she's fade away
Hidden by the break of day
That always comes too soon
Poor little thing
She's just a jealous moon
[Verse 2]
She plays above the water
Watching sailors, tramps and daughters
Live their lives and slowly fade away
Night afternight, year after year
Once she knows she'll disappear
Into a world she never gets to stay
[Chorus 2]
But she would give most anything
To open up her heart and sing
But no one hears her tune
Poor little thing
She's just a jealous moon
