Goodnight moon, goodnight stars
Oh, this song is all kinds of wonderful tonight; simple like the last waltz across a darkened kitchen, easy like front porch swings and fireflies. Wistful and wonderful as the moon rises.
Goodnight Moon – Will Kimbrough
Goodnight moon, good night stars
Goodnight old brokedown cars
Gone away, leaving soon
Goodnight darlin’
Goodnight moon
See I don’t know where I’ll be
And I don’t know if I’ll see
Out the window of my room
Shining down
Goodnight moon
Thank you babe, I’m gonna miss you
When the night comes ’round
That’s when I long to kiss you
With the moon shining on the ground
