I ask only for a moondance
The chance to say good-bye
Two shadows embracing
Against the soft midnight sky
Where two faces would never meet
To fall in love
Before one turned away
And disappeared into the night.
The sun that was born, that rose today
Cried for me, the day I died
For all my living colors
Brushed away by a lonely gray
Where love will no longer be
Only one shadow and one tree
Will dance this moondance
Where no one else could be
To dance one last dance
One last good-bye with me
