Where the moon shines nThe streets are damp and cold nWhere the moon shines nDreams are bought and sold nUnder the blue light's flood nSecrets are never told n nWhere the moon shines nIs where the darkness lives nWhere the moon shines nOn all the day forbids nThe mysteries of the shadows nNo one remembers to forgive n nSomeday soon I know I'm gonna leave here nLeave my life to dienSomeday I'll be walkingnIn the sweet by and byn nWhere the moon shines nSo far away from home nWhere the moon shines nEveryone is alone nThe boulevards and avenues nAre no place to atone n nSomeday soon I know I'm gonna go there nLeave my life to dienSomeday I'll be walkingnIn the sweet by and by
