I travel over the sea
|
and ride the rolling sky
|
For that's the way it is
|
that is my fortune
|
There are many ears to please
|
many people's love to try
|
And every day's begun
|
rising for the moon
|
There's a heart in every place
|
there's a tear for each farewell
|
For that's the way it is
|
that is my fortune
|
I'll lure you as the lace
|
that the wayward gypsies sell
|
With the sinking of the sun
|
rising of the moon
|
Rising for the moon
|
the sun has set and it is dark
|
But the star of the enchanted
|
tune is bright as any spark
|
The chorus of the dusk
|
regail the evening lark
|
Whose every day does
|
start rising for the moon
|
