[ Featuring The Savoy Hotel Orpheans ]
When Shadows fall and the sky is dark and deep,
I've a rendezvous that I must keep,
Or my poor heart would not sleep!
I have two friends, the strangest company,
The gay light-hearted moon and the willow tree,
The sad willow tree.
And when we meet, I notice suddenly
The moon begins to smile, but the willow tree
Starts weeping for me!
Somehow I know it's about my love
The willow must doubt my love will ever appear!
And yet the moon seems to say my love will soon be here! Which one is right? They never quite agree,
The smiling moon and the weeping willow tree.
