[Half-HW] The Song - Moon River

Moon river

Artist:Andy Williams

Moon river, wider than a mile

I'm crossing you in style some day

Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world

There's such a lot of world to see

We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me

(Moon river, wider than a mile)

(I'm crossin' you in style some day)

Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world

There's such a lot of world to see

We're after that same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me

(Moon River, Moon River)

"Moon River" is a song composed by Johnny Mercer and Henry Mancini in 1961. It was sung in the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's by Audrey Hepburn, the movie's star, while the song itself won that year's Academy Award for Best Song for Mercer and Mancini. Mercer and Mancini originally wrote the song for Hepburn to fit the actress. "It's completely the song of Audrey Hepburn," Henry Mancini said. The harmony of "Moon River" emerged when he was looking at Audrey. It was released by South African singer Danny Williams, who got a UK number 1 with an incredible interpretation. This song reminded us of the past childhood, and then made us think of the reality of this social world.
