There was a moon out in space
but a cloud drifted over it’s face
You kissed me and went on your way
the night we called it a day

I heard the song of the spheres
like a minor lament in my ears
I hadn’t the heart left to pray
the night we called it a day

Soft through the dark
the hoot of an owl in the sky
Sad though his song
no bluer was he than I

The moon went down stars were gone
but the sun didn’t rise with the dawn
There wasn’t a thing left to say
the night we called it a day
There wasn’t a thing left to say
the night we called it a day
