Lyrics
(Who is) The Man in the Moon E.B. Fay Copyright 2004

On an early spring night, there's a sad, iwnsome smile,
When the full moon shines, there, through the trees.
How it lights up the night, makes everything seem alright,
And the man in the moon, there, is me.
What he's seen through the years, all the joy all the tears,
It's a wonder her bears all the strain.
Yet he looks at it all from the face of a ball,
And the man in the moon, there, is me.
Chorus:
As the stories unfold, some claim he has a black soul,
It's sad that they still misconstrue.
If the truth will be told, he's not all ice and cold,
Ain't he lighting the night just for you?
Though he never will know if the effects of his glow,
Do serve to empower or inflame.
His smile twists to the right and he always stays bright,
If maybe a little insane.
Verse:
To bask in the sight of that shimmering light,
Is truly a grand place to be.
You know your dreams may come true if he looks straight at you,
And the man in the moon, there, is me, sometimes,
Yeah the man in the moon there is me, once and a while,
The man in the moon there is me.
