Lyrics
Red Crescent Moon
There's a red crescent moon hanging o'er my window
Like the one on the night we met
We stood in the shadow 'neath its evening glow
Felt the tug of moon as our fate was set
Love took hold and it would not let go
Held us in her arms of sweet caress
Raised our souls high above the world below
Under the light of the moon we were put to test
I love you and you love me
We both agree we can never be
You've got yours and I've got mine
We do what's right, but live a lie
That don't mean me I love you any less
That don't mean me I love you any less
I was blessed to have a love like we know
It may be right on another day
But, we've got lives we started long ago
Still it breaks my heart that I cannot stay
There's a red crescent moon hanging o'er my window
Its light reflecting across my bed
On tears that roll down upon my pillow
Loving you, I never will regret
I love you and you love me
We both agree we can never be
You've got yours and I've got mine
We do what's right, but live a lie
That don't mean I love you any less
That don't mean I love you any less
That don't mean I love you any less, no, no, no ...
There's a red crescent moon hanging o'er my window
