How High the Moon
Chasing Love Beyond the Moon: Les McCann's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
Somewhere there's music
Somewhere there exists music.
How faint the tune
Describing the faintness of the musical tune.
Somewhere there's heaven
There is a place where heaven exists.
How high the moon
Expressing the elevation or greatness of the moon.
There is no moon above
Highlighting the absence of a moon above.
When love is far away too
When love is distant, the moon is not visible.
Till it comes true
Anticipating a wish coming true.
That you love me as I love you
Expressing reciprocal love between two individuals.
Somewhere there's music
Reiteration of the idea of music existing somewhere.
How near, how far
Emphasizing the variability in distance.
Somewhere there's heaven
Reiteration of the idea of heaven existing somewhere.
It's where you are
Heaven is where the person addressed is located.
The darkest night would shine
Even the darkest night would brighten with the presence of the person.
If you would come to me soon
Expressing the longing for the person to come soon.
Until you will, how still my heart
Describing the stillness of the heart until the person arrives.
How high the moon
Reiteration of the greatness or elevation of the moon.
Somewhere there's music
Restating the existence of music somewhere.
How faint the tune
Re-emphasizing the faintness of the musical tune.
Somewhere there's heaven
Reiteration of the idea of heaven existing somewhere.
How high the moon
Re-emphasizing the greatness or elevation of the moon.
The darkest night would shine
Reiterating that even the darkest night brightens with the person's presence.
If you would come to me soon
Expressing the longing for the person to come soon.
Until you will, how still my heart
Describing the stillness of the heart until the person arrives.
How high the moon
Final reiteration of the greatness or elevation of the moon.
