about

A couple mates of mine are gifted songwriters and from each I chose a work that I knew would work well with unaccompanied voices. Although contemporary, Russell Neal’s Bright Moon effortlessly captures a romantic mood of the mid-twentieth century.

lyrics

Bright moon, tell my baby goodbye
Bright moon, wipe the tear from her eye
Let your moonbeams kiss her cheek
Let her hear the words I speak
Though I see you rise in cancer
Be my true romance enhancer
Bring me her unguarded answer
Won't you make it soon? Bright moon

Bright moon, tell my baby goodbye
Bright moon, wipe the tear from her eye
Though I'm driving far tonight
Keep her in your kindly light
Guide my journey with your moonglow
You who make the tides ebb and flow
Just as sure as I have to go
I will be back soon, Bright moon

Bright moon, tell my baby goodbye
Bright moon, wipe the tear from her eye
On her balcony tonight
Bathed in your reflected light
While you're shining high above her
Tell her I'm her truest lover
She won't ever need another
Morning night or noon, Bright moon
