Lost in the shuffle, I've drifted and strayed 
Bruised by the city, bewildered, betrayed 
With a heart heavy laden with faltering strides 
I have come to the bridge, to the line that divides 
 
What am I doing up here in a daze 
As I gaze at the cold river bed 
Why do I ask myself, shall I go back 
When I seem to be going ahead
 
To black moonlight
Where everything reflects your color 
Darkness that is endless 
Nights that leave me friendless, blue 
 
Black moonlight
You make the lights of Harlem duller 
Just like me you're faded, jaded and degraded, too
Why must you send 
Ebony moonbeams, depressing, distressing 
Like shadows of love that are gone
 
Where will it end 
Will it spread on to the starlight, the sunlight 
And darken each promise of dawn 
 
Black moonlight
I've lost all power to resist you 
Madly, I await you, even though I hate you 
Black, black moonlight
