Cold Kentucky Night

The sun is going down
 On this old Kentucky town
 And the moon
 Is coming over the hill
 There's a chill that imparts
 A certain feeling in my heart
 Black as coal
 Cold as steel
 Kentucky moon, you leave me lonely when you shine
 I thought our love ran deeper than the mine
 Now she's gone like a star falls from the sky
 On a cold Kentucky night
 On a cold Kentucky night
 Was a cold Kentucky night
 When she came to said goodbye
 A word that left
 My heart so cold
 In the blanket of despair
 Left around me standing there
 As I turn
 To watch her go
 Kentucky moon, you leave me lonely when you shine
 I thought our love ran deeper than the mine
 Now she's gone like a star falls from the sky
 On a cold Kentucky night
 On a cold Kentucky night
 Her memory stays on my mind
 Doesn't seem to fade with time
 When love is gone
 Never lost
 Seems to track me without fail
 Like a hound hot on my trail
 With a broken heart
 I've paid the cost
 Kentucky moon, you leave me lonely when you shine
 I thought our love ran deeper than the mine
 Now she's gone like a star falls from the sky
 On a cold Kentucky night
 On a cold Kentucky night
