0:00The moon is like a boat my love
0:06Of lemon peel afloat my love
0:11And with a sail of gauze my love
0:17She seems to slightly pause
0:22Upon her silent way
0:26While on her starry way
0:41I see her pearly decks my love
0:47Set in with diamond specks my love
0:52I see her pearly mast my love
0:58Far from her seashell past
1:03And softly does she sway
1:07While on her starry way
1:21Of silk they have been spun my love
1:27Her ropes that limply run my love
1:33Down to her carved prow my love
1:39Down to her mermaid prow
1:43And gently does she sway
1:47While on her starry way
2:02She seems to linger long my love
2:08As if spelled by a song my love
2:14But know she tarries not my love
2:19Her journey unforgot
2:24She makes her starry way
2:28She makes her starry way
2:43All in the sea of sky my love
2:50The moonships sail and fly my love
2:54And many are their kind my love
3:00Though all need but one wind
3:05To make their starry ways
3:09To make their starry ways
3:24And there will come a time my love
3:29Oh may it be in mine my love
3:36When men will proudly rise my love
3:41And board to sail the skies
3:46Moonships from all the spheres
3:50Moonships from all the spheres
4:05The men be bathed in light my love
4:11The women clothed in white my love
4:17All in that wonderous fleet my love
4:22As each the other meets
4:27Will smile and softly sing
4:31Will smile and softly sing
4:46And on some distant sand my love
4:52The ships will gently land my love
4:58Fair folk will meet them there my love
5:04With flowing golden hair
5:08And great will be their joy
5:12And great will be their joy
5:27The moon is like a boat my love
5:33Of lemon peel afloat my love
5:39And with a sail of gauze my love
5:45She seems to slightly pause
The moon is like a boat my love Of lemon peel afloat my love And with a sail of gauze my love She seems to slightly pause Upon her silent way While on her starry way I see her pearly decks my love Set in with diamond specks my love I see her pearly mast my love Far from her seashell past And softly does she sway While on her starry way Of silk they have been spun my love Her ropes that limply run my love Down to her carved prow my love Down to her mermaid prow And gently does she sway While on her starry way She seems to linger long my love As if spelled by a song my love But know she tarries not my love Her journey unforgot She makes her starry way She makes her starry way All in the sea of sky my love The moonships sail and fly my love And many are their kind my love Though all need but one wind To make their starry ways To make their starry ways And there will come a time my love Oh may it be in mine my love When men will proudly rise my love And board to sail the skies Moonships from all the spheres Moonships from all the spheres The men be bathed in light my love The women clothed in white my love All in that wonderous fleet my love As each the other meets Will smile and softly sing Will smile and softly sing And on some distant sand my love The ships will gently land my love Fair folk will meet them there my love With flowing golden hair And great will be their joy And great will be their joy The moon is like a boat my love Of lemon peel afloat my love And with a sail of gauze my love She seems to slightly pause
