Under The Man In The Moon
Engelbert Humperdinck Lyrics

I always thought that love was a game for fools
I used to believe that love was a foolish game, where you risk your heart every time, only to end up losing it.

You put your heart on the line
You expose yourself emotionally and take a big risk by exposing your heart to someone else.

Every time after time and then you lose
Sadly, it always seems that we take this risk over and over again, only to end up losing in the end.

But I'd never seen the stars shining in your eyes
But then I met you, and I saw the twinkle of the stars in your eyes, which made me realize that love can be different and special.

Now it's all very clear what is happening here tonight
Everything is crystal clear, and I know that something magical is happening tonight between us.

It's only me and you
It's just you and me here, all alone.

Under the man in the moon
We're together beneath the glow of the moon, in this enchanting moment.

Counting stars up above
We're enjoying the beauty of the starry sky above us, counting every single shining star.

And falling in love
And, most importantly, we're falling in love with each other, because that's what we were meant to do in this magical moment.

So, let's start with a kiss
And let's start this beautifully romantic night with a sweet and tender kiss.

And make every little wish come true
Let's make every single little wish come true, as we embrace and fall more deeply in love.

I never thought that I'd be the lucky one
In all my past experiences, I never thought that I would be the fortunate one, finding someone as amazing as you.

With everything I've been through
With all the heartache and struggle I've been through in life, I never thought I would find such a wonderful person to share my love with.

I find somebody like you to share my love
But now, I've found you, someone so special to share my love with, and that means everything to me.

Oh-oh, the man in the moon
Oh-oh, the man in the moon is a nostalgic phrase used to express the beauty and magic of the moment that they are experiencing together.

The man in the moon
Again, the phrase is used to remind themselves of the enchanting magic of the evening.

It's only me and you
And, once again, it's just the two of them sharing this wonderfully romantic experience together.
