+Sophie Izzard I have a hard time understanding the first part, so I'll leave out the few words I didn't catch. You can try to replace them somehow, here's the part I understood:
Moon high up on in the summer sky
...watching you shining
Speak to his heart...
Tell him I'm lonely and hiding
Speak to his heart ...
Tell him I'm lonely and hiding
Moon high above him, shine in
Speak to him, tell him I love him
Moon high above him, shine in
Speak to him, tell him I love him
If a chance he dreams of me, Let the thought of me awake him
Moonlight forsake me not, stay with me, moonlight stay with me
I hope that helps :)

@kenwilf2 I saw her in concert about 10 years ago in Glasgow with my mum and sister, just months after my father died. We joined a Q to have copies of CDs signed by her and when it was our turn, she noticed mum's teary eyes. She asked if mum was OK and when we told her about dad and the fact that he had been a fan, she stood up and hugged all 3 of us. I still have that CD which I treasure. A lovely singer and person as well. :)

You're smashing ,Lesley!!

Does anyone have the lyrics for this particular version of the song? It would be really helpful if anyone knew what she was singing word for word and it's been difficult to find the actual 2001 show version lyrics online really need as I will be singing it for my singing teacher!

+Zsofia Gara hey thanks for your help Zsofia :) so far I have been singing:
Moon high above in the summer sky,
He too is watching you(r) shining,
Speak to his heart from up on high, Tell him I'm lonely and long (longing or long for him?) x2
Moon high above him
Shining, Speak to him, tell him that I love him x2
Second part is kinda confusing but I think more or less of what you've written sounds about right!
Sofia Gara
+Sophie Izzard the part you said "shining", I thought it was "shine in" as shine in through the window, but yours make so much more sense. I think together we got the whole lyrics :) she's missing the second verse tho

Please, do anyone know the lyrics ?
