Brooks Bowman
East of the sun and west of the moon
We'll build a dream house so lovely
Near to the sun in a day, near to the moon at night
We'll live in a lovely way, dear
Living our love in memory
Just you and I, forever and a day
Love will not die; we'll keep it that way
Up among the stars we'll find
A harmony of life, too lovely tune
East of the sun and west of the moon, dear
East of the sun and west of the moon
