I try to be patient, I try not to moan
But its driving me crazy, tryin to live here alone
My conversation gets nowhere
When I talk to myself
Ive lost my sense of humour
Somewhere here on the shelf
The moon is wasting its shine, shining on me
Until I see you again
I wont be out in the moonlight
Well Ill be sleeping by ten
The birds are wasting their songs, singin to me
Until Im wakin with you
Until youre back in my arms, dear
The birds will have to find something better to do
A shoulder to cry on would make me feel fine
But its not much comfort when Im cryin all night
Friends and relations
Are running out of patience with me
I keep myself to myself but Im no company
The moon is wastin its shine, shinin on me
Until I see you again
I wont be out in the moonlight
Well Ill be sleepin by ten
The birds are wastin their song, singin to me
Until Im wakin with you
Until youre back in my arms, dear
The birds will have to find something better to do
(My baby, until youre back in my arms)
The birds will have to find something better to do
