The sheet music:


Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

Low golden moon, blue tropic skies
Night winds that sound like lovers’ sighs
Two hears in tune, two shining eyes
Lighting my was to Paradise

Refrain
Moonlight and shadows and you in my arms
And a melody in the bamboo tree, my sweet
Even in shadows I feel no alarms
While you hold me tight in the jungle light, my sweet
Close to my heart you will always be
Never, never, never to part from me
Moonlight and shadows and you in my arms
I belong to you, you belong to me, my sweet
