Shirley Horn Solitary Moon song lyrics

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 a willow sings a soft and songs from two

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 based us in it’s flight

Say that we can spent the day through a sunlit afternoon

let your kisses say you stay here

and make love to me

tenderly here, as we share the silent moon.
