Calling The Moon

the moon wanted more of my night, i turned off the engine and the headlights,

The trees appeared as they'd never been gone, i promised the fields i'd return

Form now on, and the moon kept on rising.  i had no more to say, i put my

Roadmaps away, and surendered the day.  and i knokw you'll be calling me soon,

And if i don't answer, i'm calling the moon.  calling the moon, i was calling

Her then, i'm wondering, will she take me again, oh, i'm calling the moon.

When i called the moon back to me, i thought she wanted my beauty.  i shone in

The best that vanity buys, i covered the path where my life turned to lies, and

The moon kept on rising.  but i felt nothing at all, she comes when the empire

Falls, and shines on crumbling walls.  calling the coon, by the name that she

Hose, as tennessee wandered in moth-eaten robes.  oh, i'm calling the moon,

Calling the moon--  "oh, make sense of me, night, i can see so much from this

Cold height."  the moon said, "oh darkness, my work is done.	i've poured this

Bottle of l

Ight from the sun, but their anger keeps on rising.  and they don't understand,

I've shon them all that i can, that the world is at hand.  and i know they'll

Be calling me soon, and if i don't answer i'm only the moon."  i can see by her

Light, this one's going out to the moon tonight, oh, i'm calling the moon.

Calling the moon, cause i know what it's worth, to tug at the seas and illumine

The earth, oh i'm calling the moon, oh i'm calling the moon.
