Not Wonk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The man in the moon is sure a friend of mine
That funny old moon is sure my lucky sign
The man in the moon brought me a thrill divine
When he helped me find the one I love

He sent down a beam that came from paradise
A silvery stream that took me by surprise
A wonderful dream was right before my eyes
That is how I found the one I love...

How would I have known that she was lonely?
So lonely and blue, she had been crying, too,
How would I have known that she was waiting
For someone to care and her whole life to share?

The man in the moon kept smiling up on high
That funny old moon kept winking with his eye




The man in the moon near tumbled from the sky
When he helped me find the one I love!
