THE MOON ASKED

The moon asked whom I wait for I named the one I can't forget It asked why tears fall evermore I said she's gone, I love her yet The moon asked why I still remain When she was never mine to hold I said some hearts are born with pain And some loves never grow old The moon fell silent in the sky Then asked what I expected there I said to love her till I die Though she was never mine to care The moon asked what happens when I die I said my love will still remain For even heaven may ask me why I loved a woman who never came
