Racing With The Moon

Vaughn Monroe

Once we were all together,

You and the moon and I,

But on the night you left me,

The moon raced back to the sky.



Racing with the Moon,

Sailing through the midnight blue, [High up in the midnight blue,]

And then all too soon,

It's lost from view.

Gazing at the stars,

Shining in the summer night, [Dreaming of the love we knew,]

But just like the moon,

They fade from sight. [They fade from view.]

In the blue heavens I see,

Your face smiling at me,

My heart will never be free,

Until we're back together.

Racing with the Moon,

That is what I'll always do,

Till I overtake the moon and you.
