There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
I remember now that I'm older
What you told me the day we had to part

You promised with the new moon
You'd be comin' back to me
Now many moons have passed since then
I'm waiting patiently
And an old love still in my heart

[*And so I keep on waiting
For your safe return someday
And that we'll be the same old sweethearts
As when you went away]
There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
