The Moon

I go from place to place Winding roads and fields of gold I can't stay in one town for too long I keep my memory cold Ever since that day I knew That I'd never be the same And although I've run for miles and miles I still hear you call my name The tall grass sways in the wind As lonely quiet breezes blow As I rest beneath a weeping willow tree I should be feeling free I know But the heart within me softly cries As the evening shadows linger low I gaze into the skies The stars twinkle like your eyes But the moon just mocks me with its glow So I just keep traveling on Never stopping to look behind I keep my gaze turned towards the West With jumbled pictures in my mind The tall grass sways in the wind As lonely quiet breezes blow As I rest beneath a weeping willow tree I should be feeling free I know But the heart within me softly cries As the evening shadows linger low I gaze into the skies The stars twinkle like your eyes But the moon just mocks me with its glow If I rest my thoughts will set Like dust upon a shelf But if I ponder for too long I just might have to find myself Ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh
