By the light of the moon
To a 50's tune
He pledged
his love to her
A girl so rare
A girl so fair
The girl for him for sure
He could
see himself getting up every mornin'
For the rest of his life
Just to look in those eyes
so blue
It was all he ever wanted to do
She was all he'd ever need to see him through
They were still in their teens
When he gave her the ring
They were married late one
may
And they moved into a little house
On the far end of town
Out by the big
highway
And all through the days
And all through the nights
The cars and trucks
rolled on by
And he slept through it all just fine
Every night he slept just fine
Sometimes she'd stare at the stars out the window
Sometimes she'd walk `neath the
moon
Sometimes she'd sit there just watching him sleeping
Hoping the dawn would come
soon
She'd done well in school
She'd followed the rules
And she'd always stood
out from the rest
She'd go off to college
And work her way through
Then move to some
city out west
She had it all planned
She'd have her career
She'd have all of the
things that she'd always lacked
She'd wake up one morning all packed
And leave here
and never look back
Most of her friends thought it soon would be over
Not many
thought it would last
Most seemed to think they were all wrong for each other
And soon it
would pass - soon it would pass
Now twenty years have gone
And her kids have moved
on
And she's still on the far end of town
Her youngest ­ she's livin' somewhere in
l.a.
And her oldest he works on a nearby farm
Her husband comes home
And they
talk over supper
He's usually the first to turn in
Another day comes to an end
Another day just ends
And sometimes in the wee hours when the traffic dies down
She'll hear the sound of some bird on the wing
And she'll look out the window and she'll look
at his picture
But not at the ring not at the ring
She never looks at the ring | | | |
