Intro : N.C. The moon is like a boat my love N.C. Of lemon peel afloat my love N.C. And with a sail of gauze my love N.C. She seems to slightly pause N.C. Upon her silent way While on her starry way              I see her pearly decks my love Set in with diamond specks my love I see her pearly mast my love Far from her seashell past And softly does she sway While on her starry way Of silk they have been spun my love Her ropes that limply run my love Down to her carved prow my love Down to her mermaid prow And gently does she sway While on her starry way                             She seems to linger long my love As if spelled by a song my love But know she tarries not my love Her journey unforgot She makes her starry way She makes her starry way                            All in the sea of sky my love The moonships sail and fly my love And many are their kind my love Though all need but one wind To make their starry ways To make their starry ways                            And there will come a time my love Oh may it be in mine my love When men will proudly rise my love And board to sail the skies Moonships from all the spheres Moonships from all the spheres                       The men be bathed in light my love The women clothed in white my love All in that wonderous fleet my love As each the other meets Will smile and softly sing Will smile and softly sing                            And on some distant sand my love The ships will gently land my love Fair folk will meet them there my love With flowing golden hair And great will be their joy And great will be their joy                         N.C.
