Lyrics
- I see the moon, the moon sees me
Down thru the leaves of the old oak tree
Please let the light that shines on me
Shine on the one I love
Refrain
Over the mountain, over the sea
Back where my heart is longing to be
Please let the light that shines on me
Shine on the one I love
- I hear the lark, the lark hears me
Singing a song with a memory
Please let the lark that sings to me
Sing to the one I love
Refrain
Over the mountain, over the sea
Back where my heart is longing to be
Please let the lark that sings to me
Sing to the one I love
- I kiss the rose, the rose kisses me
Fragrant as only a rose can be
Please take the kiss that comforts me
Back to the one I love
Refrain
Over the mountain, over the sea
Back where my heart is longing to be
Please take the kiss that comforts me
Back to the one I love
