By the moonlight

In the early evening the moonlight breaks through,
Makes a perfect setting for me and you.
We talk of our hopes and of our love,
Lit by the moonlight coming from above.

We speak about dreams those near and far,
Our own house even a different car.
Of things to come in our life together,
Which will last for ever and ever.

Remember the night down by the sea,
When I asked will you marry me.
How we promised our love by the moonlight,
How will I ever forget that wonderful night.

The first night of our honeymoon,
On the beach under the moon.
Our love we did fulfill that glorious eve,
And in our joy in love we believe.

Even now this much later in life,
I am still glad that you are my wife.
Every chance I get no matter how slight,
I try to remember that night by the moonlight.
