Title There's a new moon over my shoulder
Lyrictext

There's a new moon over my shoulder and an old love still in my heart
I remember now that I'm older what you told me the day we had to part
You promised with the new moon you'd be coming back to me
Many moons have passed still I'm waiting patiently
There's a new moon over my shoulder and an old love still in my heart

There's a new moon over my shoulder and an old love still in my heart
Now I'm wishing I had been bolder then perhaps we wouldn't be so far apart
You promised you would write me but so could not a line
Still I wait and make believe that some day you'll be mine
There's a new moon over my shoulder and an old love still in my heart
