Paroles de Earthshine

On certain nights When the angles are right And the moon is a slender crescent Its circle shows In a ghostly glow Of earthly luminescence Earthshine A beacon in the night I can raise my eyes to Earthshine Earthshine A jewel out of reach Form a dream to rise to Earthshine Floating high In the evening sky I see my faint reflection Pale facsimile Like what others see When they look in my direction Earthshine A beacon in the night I can raise my eyes to Earthshine Earthshine Stretching out your hand Full of starlit diamonds Earthshine Reflected light To another's sight And the moon tells a lover's story My borrowed face And my third-hand grace Only reflect your glory Earthshine Stretching out your hand I can raise my eyes to Earthshine Earthshine You're still out of reach Form a dream to rise to Earthshine
