There's a full moon out tonight 
all the stars are shining bright 
the same way that they used to do. 
And it reminds me of 
the night we fell in love 
Beneath that old Missouri moon. 

(Chorus)

Who'd have ever thought we'd end this way 
As I watch you go the tears are rolling down my face. 
Who'd have ever thought I'd be so blue 
As I cry beneath that old Missouri moon. 

I can't remember when it started to begin 
That I gave my heart away to you 
And then when we touched 
I have never felt so much 
It was in that moment that I knew. 

(Chorus)

As I cry beneath that old Missouri moon 
Missouri moon, Missouri moon.
