Lyrics:

(D. Parker, R. Rainger)[Recorded November 30, 1965, Hollywood]Every night was long and gloomy, shadows gathered in t
he airNo one ever listened to me, no one wondered did I careNone in all the world to love me, none to count that stars that h
ungThen the moon came out above me and I saw that it was youngI wished on the moon for something I never knewWished on the
moon for more than I ever knewA sweeter rose, a softer skyAn April day that would not dance awayI begged of a star to throw
me a beam or twoWished on a star and asked for a dream or twoI looked for ev'ry loveliness, it all came trueI wished on the
moon for you
