There’s my friend, the little hopper
\nA frog as black as midnight.
\nShe follows me everywhere I go
\nThat Moonshadow.<\/p>\n
I hope she’ll hop the sadness away
\nOr maybe hop some joy
\nShe keeps me from feeling lonesome
\nThat Moonshadow.<\/p>\n
But frogs don’t make much conversation
\nTheir little croaks ain’t words
\nThey ain’t able to bring me joy
\nNot Moonshadows<\/p>\n
Moon Shadow
\nHop away my pain
\nMoon Shadow
\nProve there’s love to gain
\nMoonShadow~
\nGive me some feeling<\/p>\n
There’s my friend, the little froggy
\nBlack as midnight is to day~
\nShe follows my every dogged step<\/p>\n
That Moonshadow’s here to stay~<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
