Lyrics

Moonlight and memory are bringing me regret
Moonlight and memory
Reminding me while letting you forget

Chorus
Two heads against the moon, a night in June
The world in all its splendor
Don’t you recall that night when love was all
That hour of our sweet surrender?
Two heads against the moon, two hearts in tune
We shared a kiss so tender
A lovely scene but shadows came between
Two heads against the moon
I remember ev’ry thrilling embrace
Ev’ry moment so divine
You’ve forgotten both the time and the place
Yet you whispered to me, forever there’d be
Two heads against the moon
But all too soon the world lost all its splendor
You said, “Goodbye,” now darling, here am I
One lonely head against the moon
