This moon I do see tonight Who else has seen this sight This pale moon I see tonight
Perhaps Helen of Troy Had seen this very sight As she looked into the sky
And she held Paris in her arms And looked into the sky And had seen this very sight The pale moon I do see tonight
Or perhaps Juliet's anxious eyes Had seen this very sight Waiting for Romeo to emerge From the distant tree line
Did Jane Austin see this sight The pale moon that I see tonight Inspiring her as she gazed into the sky To write pride and prejudice during The romantic poets era's time
Or maybe Mary Shelly's vision Did look into the dark cloudy sky And had found the inspiration To write her novel Frankenstein when she had seen this very sight This pale moon that I see tonight
