By the Light Of the Silvery Moon

Melody - Melody - Gus Edwards, 1909

Edward Madden

Place, park, scene, dark,
Silv'ry moon is shining through the trees
Cast: two, me, you,
Sound of kisses floating on the breeze.
Act one, be-gun.
Dialog: "Where would you like to spoon?"
My cue, with you,
Underneath the silv'ry moon.
Act two, scene new,
Roses blooming all around the place.
Cast three: you, me,
Preacher with a solemn-looking face.
Choir sings, bell rings,
Preacher: "You are wed forever more."
Act two, all through,
Ev'ry night the same encore.

Refrain:
|: By the light of the silvery moon
   I want to spoon,
   To my honey I'll croon love's tune.
   Honey moon,
   Keep a-shinin' in June.
   Your silv'ry beams
   Will bring love dreams,
   We'll be cuddling soon
   By the silvery moon. :|
