Moon Upon the Left

[Chorus]
There's a moon upon the left
And there's a star upon the right
There's a nightingale a-singin'
To the wondrous summer night
There are gentle deer a-grazin'
In the meadow with no fright

[Post-Chorus]
And there's no past and there's no future, only now
We have chanced upon this fragile scene somehow

[Verse 1]
And I can hear the clover whisper
Oh so, softly as we pass
As we find our way to somewhere
Down the old familiar path

[Verse 2]
And all the trees are shyly watching
As I slowly take your hand
And when our bodies come together
There's a hush across the land

[Verse 3]
Now, there's a cottontail a-watchin'
O'er his lady as she sleeps
And I'm a lover of tradition
Here's my heart, it's yours to keep

[Verse 4]
Won't you take me as I'm giving
And we'll be lovers in our flight
As there's a moon upon the left
And there's a star upon the right?

[Clarinet Solo]

[Verse 5]
All the little people living near
The clearing by the pond
They are dancing in the moonlight
They'll be dancing 'til the dawn

[Verse 6]
And the moon looks down upon them
Like the fat and laughin' man
He's the keeper of the magic
He's the leader of the band

[Verse 7]
Now, somewhere there's a cottage
And somewhere there's a door
And somewhere there are ponies
Running wild across the moor

[Verse 8]
There are lilies of the valley
Nodding gaily in our wake
And our hearts are all on fire
And the night is ours to take

[Chorus]
'Cause there's a moon upon the left
There's a star upon the right
There's a nightingale a-singin'
To the wondrous summer night
There are gentle deer a-grazin'
In the meadow with no fright

[Post-Chorus]
There's no past, and there's no future, only now
And we have chanced upon this fragile scene somehow
