It's the man on the moon

Saying goodnight to you

Oh how it shines

He's a good friend of mine

He's a good friend of yours

Even many miles away



I hope he comes soon

It's the man on the moon



In a night of despair

Only one light is there

It's the man on the moon

Saying goodnight to you

If you're holding my hand

As the earth turns to sand



I see your face

I see that look on your face

Don't you know that

Space is the place



If you look to the sky

Look him straight in the eye

And as strange as it seems

If you wish all your dreams

Will come true after all
