Lyrics

Full moon and

emp ty arms,

the moon is (Aaug)there

for us to (Bm)share.

But where are (A)you?

A night like (C#7)this

could weave a (E)mem o (A)ry

and ev ’ry (F#m)kiss

could start a (E7)dream

for (E9)two.

Full moon and

emp ty arms,

to night, I’ll (Aaug)use

the ma gic (Bm)moon

to wish up (A)on.

And next full (C#7)moon,

if my one (E)wish comes (A)true,

my emp ty (C#)arms will

be (E)filled with (A)you.

(A)you.
