I wish that we could live up in the sky
Where we would find a place away up high
We'd live among the stars, the sun , the moon
Just you and I.

East of the sun and west of the moon,
We'll build a dream house of love, dear.
Near to the sun in the day,
Near to the moon at night,
We'll live in a lovely way, dear,
Living on love and pale moonlight.
Just you and I,
Forever and a day;
Love will not die,
We'll keep it that way,
Up among the stars we'll find
A harmony of life to a lovely tune,
East of the sun and west of the moon, dear,
East of the sun and west of the moon.
