Everybody Gets To Go To The Moon

(альбом: Sunshower - 1969)

How many times have I been downhearted
Looked up and saw him smiling like a shiny dime
And wished that he would stay and tell me
Why he was so happy, if he had the time
And wished there was a way to race him
Catch a flying horse and chase him

Everybody gets to go to the moon, yeah
Everybody gets to go, it'll be quite soon
It's customary in songs like this, to use the word like "spoon"
By the light of the silvery
We'll take a flight to the silvery
You know, everybody's going to the moon

How many times while looking down
Has he heard us singing songs, and wondered who we were
And envied us, because the lady in the moon is gone
And now he misses her
And wondered to himself why is it no one ever pays a visit

Everybody gets to go to the moon, oh yeah
Everybody gets to go, it'll be quite soon
It's customary in songs like this, to use a month like June
By the light of the silvery
We'll take a flight to the silvery
You know, everybody's going to the moon

Isn't it a miracle, that we're the generation
Who will touch that shiny bubble
With our own two hands
It has to make you glad to be alive
Yes, it has to make you proud to be a man
A man, a man...

How many times have I heard a cynic
Say I was a fool to try and reach for him
Or heard a dreamer say "the sky's the limit"
And had to laugh at each for him
Oh, I suppose the point is only
That an old friend is no longer lonely

Everybody gets to go to the moon, oh yes
Everybody gets to go, it'll be quite soon
It's customary in songs like this, to use a word like "moon"
By the light of the silvery
We'll take a flight to the silvery
You know, everybody's going... to the moon

To the silvery moon
Oh, how I wanna spoon
With my honey, and croon love's tune
Honey moon, you'll be shining in June, yes you will
Your silvery beams will make love dreams
Will be coming soon
By the silvery moon...
