Earthshine

On certain nights

When the angles are right

And the moon is

A slender crescent

It's circle shows

In a ghostly glow

Of earthly luminescence

Earthshine

A beacon in the night

I can raise my eyes

To earthshine

Earthshine

A jewel out of reach

Form a dream to rise

To earthshine

Floating high

In the evening sky

I see myFaint reflection

Pale facsimile

Like what others see

When they look

In my direction

Earthshine

A beacon in the night

I can raise my eyes

To earthshine

Earthshine

Stretching out your hand

Full of starlit diamonds

Earthshine

Reflected light

To another's sight

And the moon

Tells a lover's story

My borrowed face

And my third-hand grace

Only reflect your glory

Earthshine

Stretching out your hand

I can raise my eyes

To earthshine

Earthshine

You're still out of reach

Form a dream to rise

To earthshine

Form a dream to rise

To earthshine
