There is a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart

I remember now that i am older
What you told me the day we had to part:
You promised with the new moon you would be coming back to me
Many moons have passed, still i am waiting patiently

There is a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
There is a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart

Now i am wishing i had been bolder, then perhaps we would'nt be so far apart
You promised you will write to me, but so forth not a line
Still i am waiting pariently that someday you will be mine

There is a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
