By the light of the silv`ry moon I want to spoon
To my honey I`ll croon love`s tune
Honey moon, keep a-shinin` in June
Your silv`ry beams will bring love`s dreams
We`ll be cuddlin` soon by the silv`ry moon

Place? Park
(Scene dark)
Silv`ry moon is shining through the trees
(Cast: two) Me, you
(Summer kisses floating on the breeze)
Act one (Be done)
Dialog `where wouldja like to spoon?`
(My cue) With you
(Underneath the silv`ry moon)

(By the light of the silv`ry moon I wanna spoon)
(To my honey I`ll croon love`s tune)
(Honey moon, keep a-shinin` in June)
(Your silv`ry beams will bring love`s dreams)
(We`ll be cuddlin` soon by the silv`ry moon)

(Act two. Scene new)
Roses blooming all around the place
(Cast three) You, me,
Preacher with a solemn-looking face
(Choirs sings, bell rings)
(Preacher: `You are wed forever more`)
(Act two all though)
Ev`ry night the same encore

By the light (not the dark but the light) of the silvery moon (not the sun but the moon)
I wanna spoon (not croon but spoon)
To my honey I`ll croon love`s tune
Honeymoon (honey moon, honey moon), keep a-shinin` in June
Your silv`ry beams will bring love`s dreams
We`ll be cuddlin` soon by the silvery moon
(The silv`ry moon)
