Shown to the Moon
Elway

The night hangs blue on the black sea

And the wind whips through your hair

I’ve been gone for a lifetime

And I followed your cries here

And those cries sent me wandering

And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you

Just you and I on the shoreline

And the stars that shimmer on and on

I’m lost without you near me

Show me to the moon

I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway

Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay

Or fade into her light and wander on eternally

Show me to the moon

I always swore I was trying

And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay

Awake all night between bed sheets

And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun

You replied with a smile

And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather

I’ll return in the summer

Fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome

Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn

And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
