Under blue moon I saw you

Or cancel it though I know it must be
Em
The killing time
C
Unwillingly mine

Fate, up against your will

Through the thick and thin

He will wait until

You give yourself to him

In starlit nights I saw you

So cruelly you kissed me

Your lips a magic world

The sky all hung with jewels
Em
The killing moon
C
Will come too soon
