Standing in the moonlight,

I saw you standing in the moonlight

With your hair a shining blue

And I shivered in the midnight air.

He was in the shadows,

He was hiding in the shadows,

Why he looked so dark and cold and lonely

Only heaven knows.



Oh, Penumbra,

Just like that moon

Some of it black,

Some of it bright,

Some of it blue.



Oh, Penumbra,

I'm just like you,

Feeling so shy,

Hiding behind

Somebody, too.

Oh, I'm just like you.



If I could have one wish

I'd take you on a starship

But I wouldn't know what to do with

All the love I have for you.



There's nothing much between us.

No, there's nothing much between us,

Even Mercury and Venus

Couldn't take me far from you.



Oh, Penumbra,

Just like that moon

Some of it black,

Some of it bright,

Some of it blue.



Oh, Penumbra,

I'm just like you,

Feeling so shy,

Hiding behind

Somebody, too.

Oh, I'm just like you.

Yes, I'm just like you.
