Think of another natural light source that is brighter than moonlight and there you have your answer!

You can also go poetic with the sentence and say something like:
Moonlight isn't as bright as the deepness of my love for you.

(Not the best example sentence, but it does show another way to finish)

KazAV's answer is definitely a much more common (and probably better) response.

Thanks Timtom. I think your answer was a good one too. It helps to know the context I think though. In a poetic context, an answer along the lines of yours would be much more suitable.
