There's a child in the moonlight
Dancing on the pond
With a thousand people's shadows
From world's way off beyond

She dances along her moonlit path
Puffing out her chest
For today is her full moon night
And she's looking at her best

She comes from a land of shadows
Where all are dressed in dark
She lives in a house of blackness
Where darkness makes a mark

But now dawn is rising
And I'm afraid she'll have to go
There's a child in the moonlight
Dancing on her own...
