Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
Like someone that hasn’t any country
Like a stranger visiting from Mars
I went around alone
Just like a rolling stone
Until I read a massage in the stars
Chorus
It must have been moonglow
Way up in the blue
It must have been moonglow
That led me straight to you
I still hear you saying
“Dear one, hold me fast”
And I start in praying
“Oh Lord, please let this last”
We seemed to float right through the air
Heavenly songs seemed to come from everywhere
And now when there’s moonglow
Way up in the blue
I’ll always remember
That moonglow gave me you
