WHEN THE MOON COMES OVER THE MOUNTAIN Kate Smith - written by Howard E. Johnson and Harry M. Woods - #1 hit for Kate Smith in 1931 - lyrics as recorded by Kate Smith When the moon comes over the mountain Every beam brings a dream, dear, of you Once again we'll stroll 'neath the mountain Through that rose-covered valley we knew Each day is grey and dreary But the night is bright and cheery When the moon comes over the mountain I'll be alone with my memories of you
