The lyric is:

Good night moon, I'll turn to neptune, He's the one who'll, Teach me patience.

I'm waiting for the tides to turn, Waiting for the tides to turn, Waiting, waiting for the tides to, Take me.

Nothing on Google with those lyrics: this wouldn't be it, would it? Goodnight Moon

Give us some more information about the song and that may help... singer, age of song, genre etc.?

Well, I found a fragment here (click), but don't have time to explore the site fully. My guess is that you'll find more if you explore the site I linked to.

Goodnight moon
I should be talkin' to Neptune
He's the one who will teach me patience
For whoever rules the sea
is now the ruler over me

Here's the rest of it. I'm not going to harvest it for the Digital Tradition.

WAITING FOR THE TIDE

I cry up to the man in the moon.
He's the only one can help me now.
I bought the line
That as long as I tried,
I could not leave empty-handed.
But I've done all I can do
And now I leave it up to you.

I'm waiting for the tide to turn,
Waiting for the tide to turn,
Waiting, waiting for the tide
To take me,
To take me away.

Goodnight, moon.
I should be talkin' to Neptune.
He's the one who will teach me patience.
For whoever rules the sea
Is now the ruler over me.

I'm waiting for the tide to turn,
Waiting for the tide to turn,
Waiting, waiting for the tide,
To take me.

So I have proved
Some things can't be moved,
And here I wait,
But my faith is weak,
And the water's creeping up to my chin.
I am...

Waiting for the tide to turn,
Waiting for the tide to turn,
Waiting, waiting for the tide
To take me.

- Melanie Doane
