Befriending the Moon

I wish i could befriend you oh moon
But i find you not in the sky at noon
Even in the morning when the sparrows croon
I found out that you have gone so soon

Tell me where i can found you all day
Tell me your secret abode i pray
That whenever i think i ought to play
I can always find you: a friend with whom to play.

Do not say goodbye tonight
You tender light is my sure delight
Kiss my heart when the shadows against me fight
Oh moon hold me tight with your lovely light tonight.
