Under Smiley Moon by Gloria Buono-Daly © 2024
*(Verse 1)*
Something’s come over me,...
Soft unseen embrace.
Secrets behind smiley moon
FALLING FEELS LIKE FLYING…
Mmmm such peace in this place…
Moonglow —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
…Wooh oooh…Wooh oooh…
*(Pre-Chorus 1)*
*(stretch "Light")*:
Quiet kind of light,
*(melisma on "Bright")*: Twinkling moon draws so bright…
*(Chorus 1)*
Something’s smiling down on me...
A cosmic dance of joy, you see...
Love lights the path, night to early morn,
Love here —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
*(Verse 2)*
Let the joy shine through.
Cheer finds me in moments dear,
Secrets behind smiley moon,
Our faces glow, tilted like moon,
That Flirty, smiley moon winks soon
Moon winks in velvety morn—under smiley moo-oo-oon…
…Wooh oooh…Wooh oooh…
*(Pre-Chorus 2)*
*(stretch "near")* Though we're apart, the sky feels near
*(melisma on "here")* Twinkling moon still draws you here…
*(Chorus 2)*
Something’s smiling down on me...
A cosmic trance of joy, you see...
Love lights the path, night to early morn,
Love here —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
…Wooh oooh…Wooh oooh…
*(Bridge)*
Our heads tilted, our faces smile
…Tilted like smiley moo-oo-oon…
Ooooooh, only you, no words, just hearts in space,
Love’s silence, special place —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
…A gentle tune… —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
…Wooh oooh…Wooh oooh…
*(Final Chorus)*
Moonbeams sing our melody...
Smiling down eternally...
A love-lit sky for you and me…
You’re my light —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
…Wooh oooh…Wooh oooh…
*(Outro 1)*
Smiley moon glows—so wide, so bright,
Only you fill my soul with golden light.
Secrets behind smiley moon
So long as moon smiles, I’ll always know—
Love here —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
*(Outro 2)*
You’re my light —under smiley moo-oo-oon…
.Only you, under smiley moo-oo-oon…
…Ooooooh, only you, under smiley moo-oo-oon… under smiley moo-oo-oon…
*(end of song)*
But I can't help but thinking of that simple tune…"By the light, of the silvery moon; I want to crone;…"
They say that everything has been written before. So, writing a new song with a new melody can be quite a challenge. You appear to be up to it.
