The moon was softly shining on an old Kentucky The fragrance of filled the air A lonely girl was writing to her sweetheart all alone To say how much she wish he were there dew on the blue grass tonight
How it shines in the moon silver light the days that used to be I wish that you could see Silver dew on the blue grass tonight
Star of love high above shining Knows the wish that I'm wishing tonight you'll bring him back I know to the one that loves him Star of love high above bright Silver dew on the blue grass tonight...
