There was a moon out in space,
But a cloud drifted over its 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.
