The Moon (Le Luna)

Walking by the old mill pond after midnight
Tuesday night alone with all these tangled thoughts
Have you noticed, you don't hear a crow caw after midnight?
Wind is cold upon face and in my heart.

I see you up there shining
how you reflect the light of the sun
You make the waves roll high on the deep blue ocean
You make the wolf howl sadly for the coming dawn

The Moon ( Silver sister of the sun)
The Moon ( Playing games with every one)
I can't stop staring at her soft beguiling beauty..
There is no sound except my broken beating heart

How do we get to these lonely places in the journey?
My father never took the time to talk to me..
I am man now with a son and now I wonder
no matter what I do, how will my son look at  me?

The Moon ( Silver sister of the sun)
The Moon (Playing games with every one )
I can't stop staring at her soft beguiling beauty..
There is no sound except my broken beating heart

bridge:

The red wine in my coffee mug smells of flowers
A hillside of vineyards in a world far from here
A dog barks in the cooling night so distant calling
I feel the need to howl within my fear

I see you up there shining
Reflecting the light of the sun
You make the waves roll high on the deep blue ocean
You make the wolf howl sadly for the coming dawn

The Moon ( Silver sister of the sun)
The Moon ( Playing games with every one)
I can't stop staring at her soft beguiling beauty..
There is no sound except my broken beating heart

to me
This is the most brilliant thing you have ever written. It made the hair stand up on my arm, just the words. We’re writing this tomorrow night. Out of your anguish comes magic. It’s like I can hear the music already. Amazing Keith!!! Jeff
