When The Moon Shines Over The Mountain
Kate Smith
When the moon shines over the mountain
Every beam brings a dream, dear, of you
Once again we'll stroll 'neath the mountain
Through that rose-covered valley we knew
Each day is grey and dreary
But the night is bright and cheery
When the moon shines over the mountain
I'll be alone with my memories of you

It could not be done and it was not done."

We will leave you your small joys and smaller troubles."

never wrestle with a pig.
you both get dirty;
the pig likes it.
