Come and see the moonlight on the water she said to me and took my hand and on that warm and starry night we went and stood on the golden sand to gaze upon the silver path that glistened and spread across the midnight sea she stepped out and turned around to face me, come and see the world with me but with every step the water rose about me she said this only happens because you doubt me Come and see the world from on a moon beam she said to me still standing there all the troubles of your life will soon seem to fade away and you won't care I stood with my waist beneath the water, she upon the silver light she stepped higher turned around to face me, follow me into the night but with every step the water rose around me she said this only happens because you doubt me No my dear I fear I cannot follow the path you tread so easily you may reach the moon but I must wallow upon the bottom of the sea I could never stroll the skies beside you I could never live that way she said you'll never know what's been denied you and on her light she sailed away and with every step I left behind the water, but on a moonlit night I still can hear her laughter

Come and see the moonlight on the water she said to me and took my hand and on that warm and starry night we went and stood on the golden sand to gaze upon the silver path that glistened and spread across the midnight sea she stepped out and turned around to face me, come and see the world with me but with every step the water rose about me she said this only happens because you doubt me Come and see the world from on a moon beam she said to me still standing there all the troubles of your life will soon seem to fade away and you won't care I stood with my waist beneath the water, she upon the silver light she stepped higher turned around to face me, follow me into the night but with every step the water rose around me she said this only happens because you doubt me No my dear I fear I cannot follow the path you tread so easily you may reach the moon but I must wallow upon the bottom of the sea I could never stroll the skies beside you I could never live that way she said you'll never know what's been denied you and on her light she sailed away and with every step I left behind the water, but on a moonlit night I still can hear her laughter
Not my words, just lyrics from a song I love.
