I Wished on the Moon

I Wished on the Moon - Matt Alber/Prime Time Big Band

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 that 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 ev'ry loveliness it all came true

I wished on the moon for you
