there's a new moon over my shoulder lyrics

There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart

I remember now that I'm older
What you told me the day we had to part

You promised with the new moon
You'd be coming back to me
Now many moons have passed
Since then I'm waiting patiently

There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart

So I'll keep on praying
For your safe return someday
And that we'll be the same sweethearts
As when you went away

There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
