Verse:
Place park, scene dark, Sil -v'ry moon is shin -ing thro' the trees;
Cast two, me you, Sound of kiss -es float -ing on the breeze;
Act one, be -gun Di -a -logue "Where would you like to spoon?"
My cue, with you, Un -der -neath the sil -v'ry moon.
 
Chorus:
By The Light Of The Sil -ve -ry Moon I want to spoon
To my hon -ey I'll croon love's tune
Hon -ey moon keep a shin -ing in June
Your sil -v'ry beams will bring love dreams We'll be cud -dling soon
By the sil -ver -y moon.
