Japanese Moon

There's a land far off,

That's called quaint old Japan,

There where romance grew,

Since this old world began

Land of cherry trees and wondrous skies of

Soft shadows play,

Flowers sway,

Neath the Japanese Moon,

There in its light,

Evry night,

Little Japanese croon,

Drifting in its silvr'y gleam

Dreaming love's sweet golden dream,

With cherry blossoms lending enchantment;

Love tales are told as of old,

All the world is in tune,

And through it all,

Night birds call,

Out across the la goon,

Two almond eyes with a Japanese fan,

Win the love of a Japanese man

Two hearts are one,

Underneath the Japanese Moon.

In my heart I yearn to be where I can see,

Lanterns softly glow upon each cherry tree,

How I long to be where blossoms ev'rywhere

With their perfumes rare

So sweetly fill the air..

Soft shadows play...
