Moon Song by Arlo Guthrie ©1996 Arloco Music
Beneath this balcony of stars Beyond the searchlight stage where we've become The stuff of time amid the waves Whose nets are cast along the shore when day is done As the seabird flies aboce My songs are sung to those I've come to love The petals strung into the leis The flowering of days I've just begun A second chance to grasp a dance Beneath the last rays setting of the sun Tears along the trail of sand Footprints in the water lead me back to who I am When gods and goddesses decreed The mountains raised up from beneath the seas The sound of sovereign thrones Above the hand tied bureaucrat who moans This crazy love amazes me As I just gaze into your eyes The liquid sun is split upon the sea I want to be where I can see the moon arise A second chance to grasp a dance Before the moment fades to summarize Tears along the trail of sand Footprints in the water lead me back to who I am Along the lonely stretch of sand Reduced to just a woman and a man Bathed in the lunar light The likes of which I might just understand Among the myths I know are real The goddess disguised as herself revealed I sang her song out loud She sat herself beside me in the crowd A second chance to grasp a dance Into the moment that she would allow Tears along the trail of sand Footprints in the water lead me back to who I am Regards, Bob... -------------------------------------------- "Do not suppose that abuses are eliminated by destroying the object which is abused.
