Moonlight

(album: Chestnut Spoke To Maple - 2015)

Love is light, and this is dark
A beating clock that will not start by the moonlight
A broken wind, long and old
Never fails to calm the soul by the moonlight
Forget the things I'd say I do
I changed my mind and threw you through by the moonlight
Taking steps far and wide
A familiar dance without a bride by the moonlight

Shine on me
Shine on the sea

Time is fast, and time is now
I don't think I'll wait around by the moonlight
Bathe the birds upon the trees
The leaves can't fall unless they're seen by the moonlight
The song I sing is a broken one
But I know I won't right the wrongs by the moonlight
If you loved her once, you could love her twice
But that's not me, and that's my advice by the moonlight

Shine on me
Shine on the sea
