Moon on the Rain

Jazz in a basement bar, the moon's on the rain
 Drunk too much, spent too much, penniless again
 Oh, sweetheart, where are you tonight?
 I remember when we used to walk by the Thames
 The lights on the embankment like jewels on chains
 I'll never forget what you said at the start,
 you said "I'll put a string of lights
 'round your heart"
 I've got your photograph, the one that you signed
 Tucked in my pocket, all tattered by time
 Oh, sweetheart who's with you tonight?
 Are you there at the roundabouts, down in the park,
 where you sneak through the railings,
 when it's Locked after dark?
 Is she learning the song you taught me at the start?
 The one the bells and the banjos played on our hearts
 Now the bars are all empty, everybody's gone home
 Perhaps I'll walk down the embankment alone
 Oh, sweetheart, I'm glad that we met
 And that there's jazz in the basement bars
 and jewels on chains
 'Cause I've drunk too much
 and spent too much,
 but there's moon on the rain
