In the dim moonlight
Below the heaven’s eyes
She danced and danced
On the streets that lay by
Trying to change her sad destiny
Into the fairy clouds of beauty.
In the rain, when the thunder cried
She went on with her appealing glide
Her tattered dress had a distinct glow
As though blooming on the cactus were a tender rose
Trying to change her sad destiny
Into the fairy clouds of beauty.
The reign of sorrow stopped at last
A charming gentleman turned out to be her Romeo
Her smile shined in her dancing amber eyes
The gray-eyed man had picked the rose
Helping her change her sad destiny
Into the fairy clouds of beauty.
