The Stars, the Moonlight and You

I can’t remember the day

you swept me away,

you kissed me and somehow I knew. 

All I know is that

I’ll never forget

the stars, the moonlight, and you.

The Louisiana moon,

Magnolias in bloom.

Sometimes we don’t get to choose

what we let go, 

what we hold onto,

Like the stars, the moonlight and you

Now my memory can’t hear

words whispered in my ear 

when you promised you’d always be true.

All I know is that

I’ll never forget

the stars, the moonlight, and you.

The Louisiana moon,

Magnolias in bloom. 

Sometimes we don’t get to choose

what we let go, 

what we hold onto,

like the stars, the moonlight and you

The Louisiana moon,

Magnolias in bloom. 

Most times we don’t get to choose

what we let go, 

what we hold onto,

like the stars, the moonlight and you

Now I can’t recall

the pain of it all

the night you told me we’re through.

All I know is that

I’ll never forget

the stars, the moonlight, and you.

All I know is that 

I’ll never regret

the stars, the moonlight, and you.
