There are thousands of stars visible to the naked eye, all around the sky; it would be strange if there were NOT a star visible in the sky near the Moon. But you asked this question on May 16, 2010, and presumably it was not an "ordinary" star.
Last night, the planet Venus was very close to the Moon in the sky; that's probably what you were seeing.
What else can I help you with?
Every night you see a bright star near your moon what is it?
Since the Moon moves across the sky about 12 degrees per night, there will be no bright star near the Moon "every night". Last night (September 11, 2009) the Moon was fairly close the Betelgeuse, the red giant star at the shoulder of Orion. Tonight, September 12, 2009, the Moon will be very near the planet Mars. Both have a similar reddish color to them.
