Lyrics
Once I tried to capture the rapture of the night, Silly dreams I knew would disappear; But it seems they left a souvenir. One refrain eternally will haunt me... taunt me...

It came from nowhere the night that we met, 'Twas like a melodious plea - Sweet moon song that wasn't meant for me.

Why is it always reminding me of A love dream that never could be - Sweet moon song that wasn't meant for me.

It came gliding into my heart, Riding on a moonbeam from above. Sorrow ended and the whole world blended In a rhapsody of love.

Then I heard her singing to somebody else What I thought was my melody - Sweet moon song that wasn't meant for me.
