Verse 1-

The moon is an old friend
for the lonesome to talk to
it moves human tides 
full of passion and tears,
as well as the oceans
for millions of years.

Verse 2-

While all around lover's 
are wooed by its brilliance
and lonely souls walk, 
hugless against the cold,
yet comforted by its 
warm face high above.

Verse-3

We all have some craters 
in our lives 
like the moon does
vast pits of despair,
faces scarred from collisions,
with some out of this world love, 
being smashed into pieces
in the depths of our hearts.

Chorus

I've no need for moon Rivers,
Cause I've cried Oh, so many,
I need a heavenly body,
here on earth, not up there
Tell me moon is there any....
one with love left to share?

verse 4-

We are all meant to gravitate 
being pulled towards each other,
very much like the moon's
swayed by earths gravity.
But sometimes we're destined
to enter the dark side,
cold, bitter, and bleaker,
then black holes far above
till we find our way back
to the sweet light of love.

Verse 5-

So we talk and we mutter, 
or we gossip and sputter,
to this ancient companion, 
who has overseen 
eons of romance below...
blowing kisses long distance
to love's we'll never know.

Chorus

I've no need for moon Rivers,
Cause I've cried Oh, so many,
I need a heavenly body,
here on earth, not up there
Tell me moon is there any
one's love left to share?

Final verse-

All the moon 
brings is comfort 
in knowing that somewhere, 
someone else is conversing
with the moon when their low.
Some souls who remain 
just as lonely as we are, 
and maybe perchance
fate might deem 
that we meet them
and share the sweet bliss
of a long denied kiss
'neath the moons 
warmest glows.
