The moon is on the rise it stares at me tonight
I'm reminded of the arms that held me tight
Last time I held you it ended all too soon
We were lying underneath a yellow moon

There's a yellow moon hanging in a starry sky
Oh, I wonder if you're watching it too
There's a yellow moon hanging in a starry sky
Wherever you are, it's watching over you
Oh, shine on, shine on yellow moon

Sometimes we sit and talk me and that old moon
I ask him, are you happy or if you're blue
I start to reminisce to a summer night in June
We fell in love under a yellow moon

There's a yellow moon hanging in a starry sky
Oh, I wonder if you're watching it too
There's a yellow moon hanging in a starry sky
Wherever you are, it's watching over you
Oh, shine on, shine on yellow moon

Yellow moon, oh, yellow moon
