Song | I Wished on the Moon |
Artist | Frank Sinatra |
Album | The Reprise Collection |
Written:Dorothy Parker/Ralph Rainger Arranger:Nelson Riddle | |
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 |
