Clouds do wash o'er the moon so full and plain The waves do wax o'er the shore and sometimes wane Peel back the curtain And join me on the roof Long white steeples scattered in the green These rooftop shingles give me room to breathe Peel back the curtain And join me on the rooftop of learning Join me on the roof Shall we put to rest all the riddles and all of the rhymes? For nothing is hidden while under the pale moonlight Join me on Peel back the curtain And join me on the rooftop of learning Join me, join me, join me Peel back the curtain And join me on the roof.
