A Moon Gone By: Of little things The song did sing It's voice upon A spinning rock.
Those waters brought Unseemly thoughts That rest beneath Deepening seas.
A moon gone by With treasured lies And its face a Bright, Golden hue
Can bring about An end to doubt And a balm for Pain forgotten,
The promise lied As the sweet tide Withdraw from Hopes lonely shore
Listen's closely to singing seas And matches them With swelling tunes
Of ages gone past, When joy could Forever last.
