BLUE MOON

I tried so hard
to wake up the moon
I whispered... don't give up
don't you give up... too soon
don't you despair now, beyond
in the gloom

but I watched the moon dim
like a tired broken bulb
watched as it hid behind
grey rolling clouds
the night deep in sorrow

the dark a sad shroud

I was desperate now
my voice getting loud
the world would be less
without you I cried
you are worthwhile and lush
like the stars and the sun
please stay with me here
don't you dare think to run

for your colours are magic
could not be replaced
there is nothing at all
that could match that sweet
face

you are friend to me always
I will help you through pain

I care not at all
if you wax or you wane

I love you I cried out
to the darkness around
but only hush answered
there was no other sound

I wept then...
all alone in the dark

Aha, Marion! There is a beautiful Chinese song "Moon expresses my feelings", and maybe I'm going to translate it just for you to enjoy! You're definitely a beautiful Moon Lady.
