Lyr Req: The Moon in the Morning

Hi, can any one help me out with the verses that go with this chorus?

The moon in the morning still clings to the sky
Trying to tell me it’s night
The moon in the morning is telling me lies
I see the moon in your eyes

I’ve drawn a blank searching on line.
Thanks.

It's one of Nancy Nicolson's songs, and in her book - "They Sent a Wumman"! ISBN 978-1-907676-86-4. On page 120. Maybe one of your pals will have a copy, or well worth buying one? She is usually happy to share her lyrics, but need to ask first!
It is also track 16 on a CD of hers called "Rhyme and Reason" - one of several "bonus tracks" added to a re-mastering of a 1990 cassette recording of her songs. PM me if you get stuck.

Afraid your link goes to the wrong song, Runrig Fan.
Here is the right song, also in the Kist O'Riches: The Moon in the Morning
