(none of these are mine, nor are they made by the uploader of this song/associated with this song)

~I have 2 versions of the lyrics here, one where I split the words up as they are pronounced in the song (may help a bit), and one stock.~

I attempted to be as complete as possible on this, and I hope this makes it's way into the lineup!

Moon+light...
Star+light....
Dark+ness falls
From the shad+ows ow+ls call
All this, shall be, yours, one day
'Til then sleep, Dream the night aw+ay.
Cric+kets chir+ping in the vale
Hear the song of the night+in+gale
All this shall be yours soon
Til then, sleep. We shall raise the moon.
Such a song un+to you was sung
long ago when we two were still young
Now, al+though you're no lon+ger with me...
I can still hear that old mel+o+dy
La+la+lu, la+la+lu
May this song reach your heart
Ev+en now as we drift far+ther a+part
La+la+lu, La+la+lu
You were sent from my sight
When your heart grew dar+ker than your night
Pon+ies that play by the day
Sleep so soun+dly as it fades a+way
"Does not mat+ter" you would lie
But I knew bet+ter than that, di+dn't I?
I could see a dark+ness in you
But I did not know what I could do
For what wis+dom could I ever say-
-when all I tru+ly knew was the day?
La+la+lu, la+la+lu
May this song reach your heart
E+ven now as we drift far+ther a+part
La+la+lu, la+la+lu
I still re+gret that day
when I had to send you a+way
That dark+ne+ss's o+ri+gin...
Did it tru+ly come from just with+in?
A crea+ture bring+ing ter+ror and doom
A night+mare from the moon...
La+la+lu, la+la+lu
May this song reach to you
Not that e+vil crea+ture,
But the fil+ly you were
La+la+lu, la+la+lu
I have long mourned  for you
And all these things
I was forced to do...
La+la+lu, la+la+lu
May this song reach your heart
Even now as we drift far+ther a+part
La+la+lu, la+la+lu
In a flash you were gone...
All I had was a mem+'ry and a song...
All I have is your mem+'ry and a song...

Moonlight...
Starlight....
Darkness falls
From the shadows owls call
All this shall be yours one day
'Til then sleep.
Dream the night away.
Crickets chirping in the vale
Hear the song of the nightingale
All of this shall be yours soon
'Til then,sleep we shall raise the moon.
Such a song unto you was sung
long ago when we two were still young
Now, although you're no longer with me...
I can still hear that old melody
Lalalu, lalalu
May this song reach your heart
Even now as we drift farther apart
Lalalu, Lalalu
You were sent from my sight
When your heart grew darker than your night
Ponies that play by the day
Sleep so soundly as it fades away
"Does not matter" you would lie
But I knew better than that, didn't I?
I could see a darkness in you
But I did not know what I could do
For what wisdom could I ever say-
-when all I truly knew was the day?
Lalalu,lalalu
May this song reach your heart
Even now as we drift farther apart
Lalalu,lalalu
I still regret that day
when I had to send you away
That darkness's origin...
Did it truly come from just within?
A creature bringing terror and doom
A nightmare from the moon...
Lalalu, lalalu
May this song reach to you
Not that evil creature,
But the filly you were
Lalalu, lalalu
I have long mourned  for you
And all these things
I was forced to do...
Lalalu, lalalu
May this song reach your heart
Even now as we drift farther apart
Lalalu, lalalu
In a flash you were gone...
All I had was a memory and a song...
All I have is your memory and a song...
