By Moonlight Alone

Meet me by moonlight alone
And then, I will tell you a tale
Must be told by the moonlight alone
In the grove at the end of the vale
You must propose to come for I said
I would shew the nightflowers their Queen
Nay turn not away thy sweet head
’Tis the lovli est ever was seen

Meet me by moonlight alone
Meet me by moonlight alone

Daylight may do for the gay
The thoughtless, the heartless, the free
But there’s something about the moon’s sky
That is sweeter to you and to me
Oh! rеmember be surе to be there
For tho’ dearly a moonlight I prize
I care not for all in the air
If I want the sweet light of your eyes

So meet me by moonlight alone
Meet me by moonlight alone
