By the Light Of the Silv'ry Moon
Words by Edward Madden
Music by Gus Edwards
1919


By the light of the silv'ry moon I want to spoon
To my honey I'll croon love's tune
Honey moon, keep a-shinin' in June
Your silv'ry beams will bring love's dreams
We'll be cuddlin' soon by the silv'ry moon
To my honey I'll croon love's tune
Honey moon, keep a-shinin' in June
Your silv'ry beams will bring love's dreams
We'll be cuddlin' soon by the silv'ry moon


By the light (not the dark but the light) of the silvery moon (not the sun but the moon)
I wanna spoon (not croon but spoon)
To my honey I'll croon love's tune
Honeymoon (honey moon, honey moon), keep a-shinin' in June
Your silv'ry beams will bring love's dreams
We'll be cuddlin' soon by the silvery moon
(The silv'ry moon)
