Hang The Moon

If our lives were a movie
I'd know what to do
I'd write every scene with my heart.

An archale(?) picture
That stars me and you
And this time I'd learn my part.

I'd paint you some scenery
We'd sing and we'd dance
From morning till late afternoon
And when that scene is done
Then I peg(?) down(?) the sun
And for you, darling, I'll hang the moon.

We'd wake up to sunshine
Like lights on a set
You'd reach out and there'd be my hand
All day there'd be music
A perfect duet
That flows from the white baby grand.

At night when you're frightened
I'll play you to sleep
That melody from (?)
And to fill up the sky
Half the clouds I would fly
And for you, darling, I'll hang the moon.

Hang the moon forever
So you'd never fear
The darkness, the darkness I know
Moon, protect Norma Jeane
So that she'll never be alone
Never alone.

If our lives were a movie
Then you'd be the star
'Cause know I know the role I should play
To applaud all you do
All the things that you are
And just be there on opening day.

I know in the past
That the lines were all wrong
And the music was never in tune
But the wish that I make
Is for just one more take
Because then, darling, I'll hang the moon.

I'll hang the moon above you
So you never fear
The darkness, the darkness of night
Then you'll know I love you
Each time that you feel a light
Feel the light.

If our lives were a movie
Then I'd cut away
All the moments when I wasn't there.

The scenes that are happy
Are all that will stay
The rest will dissolve into air.

As the final reel ends
We might both shed a tear.

For the ending is coming up soon
But when the screen fades to black
We can smile and look back
And for you, darling, I'll hang the moon.
