Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
There is no moon above
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you
Somewhere there's music
It's where you are
Somewhere there's heaven
How near, how far
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon
How high the moon
İs the name of this song
How high the moon
Though the words maybe wrong
We're singin it because you ask for it
So we're swingin it just for you
How high the moon
Does it touch the stars
How high the moon
Does it reach out to mars
Though the words maybe wrong to this song
We're askin how high high high high is the moon
There are many poetic elements to this classic song written by Nancy Hamilton and Morgan Lewis. The continuous metaphor of music and the heavens serves as great analogy for the love that the writers' feel. The first two lines poetically establish that music will never die. The following two lines establish that there is the heavens. The fifth and sixth lines describe how it feels like the world will end when you don't have love in your life.
"The darkest night would shine if you would come to me soon." This line is a so rhythmically flowing. I love the comparison of the darkest night shining.
