| Picture of the moon |
Picture of the moon
you gave to me that night
The stars were out to play,
the moon was shining bright
If only I had known
that it would end so soon
I was left with a picture of the moon
The sound of soft guitars
beneath the spanish skies
Across the candle lights
the sadness in your eyes
If only I had known
that it would end so soon
I was left with a picture of the moon
Picture of the moon
you gave to me that night
The stars were out to play,
the moon was shining bright
However could I know
that it would end so soon?
I was left with a picture of the moon
I was left with a picture of the moon
All that's left is a picture of the moon |

| Drowning in tears |
The woman I love doesn't want me
I'm having to face my worst fears
She's promised her heart to another
Feel like I'm drowning in tears
She is the one I have lived for
I've waited for so many years
Now she is leaving me lonely
Feel like I'm drowning in tears
I was the one who waited endlessly,
sending you kisses from the stars
I was the one who fought relentlessly,
wishing you hadn't gone so far
The woman I love doesn't want me
I'm having to face my worst fears
She's promised her heart to another
Feel like I'm drowning in tears
Feel like I'm drowning in tears |
