Moon beams dancing upon rooftops
How I wish I could join in
Weary legs, broken feet
Dance only in memories
Moon beams competing with the sun
No way to outshine that heated glory
And I, with worn body feel her pain.
She just doesn’t have it in her
To light the world that way
Moonbeams, does she not yet know
How she feeds our souls
And I, with my youth long spent,
Gaze up into the night skies
Wishing to touch the moon
For her glory, too, is faded
When compared with a sun so bright
So age to youth is seen
A pale shadow of what was once
And yet, and still, there’s a soul dance
Like moon beams on rooftops
And still alive am I
Dancing in my dreams
