There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
I remember now that I'm older
What you told me the day we had to part
You said that with the new moon you'ld be coming back to me
Many moons have passed and still I'm waiting patiently
There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
I recall when you first said you loved me
A new moon was swingin in the sky
Every thought you had that night was of me
I still think of them as days go driftin by
There's a new moon over my shoulder, etc
You promised me you'ld write me but there hasnt been a line
I still wait and make believe that someday you'll be mine
