I Wished On The Moon

I Wished On The Moon - Mel Tormé

Written by：Ralph Rainger/Dorothy Parker

Every night was long and gloomy shadows gathered in the air

No one ever listened to me no one wondered did I care

None in all the world to love me none to count the stars that hung

Then the moon came out above me and I saw that it was young

I wished on the moon for something I never knew

Wished on the moon for more than I ever knew

A sweeter rose a softer sky

An April day that would not dance away

I begged of a star to throw me a beam or two

Wished on a star and asked for a dream or two

I looked for every loveliness it all came true

I wished on the moon for you
