Full moon, filled with your own importance
For you think you deserve a bouquet
Though you've been admired for the longest time
You're not quite as great as they say
Full moon, when love is in flower
You're bursting with pride, filled with power
Full moon, when kisses are tender
Don't think it's because of your splendour
Full moon, I know what romance is
Enough of your sly, knowing glances
Long after stars close their sleepy eyes
And the glow of a full moon dies
My heart will still be full of love
