I watched the sun going down

While I stand on sacred ground

Where once the night found us 

In the twilight of our love

You said you'd meet here

But I'm all alone

You sounded so sincere

Did you lead me on?


I told the stary sky to wait for you

I told the wind to sigh like lovers do

I even told the night that you were true

And you would be here soon

And now I'm lying to the moon


And so the night takes me in

Like a sympathetic friend

And sends the wind through the trees

So the willow weeps for me


The shadows fool my eyes 

And i think I see you

And then they start to cry

Don't you know they believed you?


I told the stary sky to wait for you

I told the wind to sigh like lovers do

I even told the night that you were true

And you would be here soon

And now I'm lying to the moon


I told the stary sky to wait for you

I told the wind to sigh like lovers do

I even told the night that you were true

And you would be here soon

And now I'm lying to the moon
