Lyrics

Moon shine on the river.
stars light up the night.
The woman I love is done with me.
but I still pray that she's alright.

It's been way too long since I seen her face.
There was so much wrong I didn't understand.
As the tears rolled on I left in disgrace.
I’m stripped of the privilege to be her man.

Is her life without me so much better?
Does she smile knowing I'm gone?
Do her tears not flow while I'm away?
Is the healing in her all done?

Moon shine on the river.
stars light up the night.
The woman I love is done with me.
but I still pray that she's alright.

I still see her smile when I close my eyes.
I still dream of the time we had.
When I dream, it’s a dream where I never lied.
It’s this dream I’m not so sad

The pale draping reaches of moonlight
are dim when not touching her face.
The pillow where she used to lay it cold.
My heart is broken all the same.

Moon shine on the river.
stars light up the night.
The woman I love is done with me.
but I still pray that she's alright.
