1.
When your moon’s as high as can be Go to the woods, come looking for me Into the woods, come looking for me I’ll be waiting by the big oak tree When the crickets are singing their song I’ll bring my guitar and we’ll sing along You bring your voice for to sing along The sun’s on it’s way so don’t take too long When the leaves are turning to red And your parents are turning to bed When those in your house are ready for bed Come out, take the path where the deer tread My love, dance with me, we have all night We’ll be with each other until the light We can be together ’til morning light And they say there’s no love at first sight
2.
You give the sea your devoted love While you reside in stars above And while the sea will never leave It is always reaching for you Luna, Goddess of the Moon While we build our monuments You just watch in reverence And while I climb, I can't let you find My hand reaching out for you Luna, Goddess of the Moon If you only knew Our perfection looks like you The poems and the stories we write Inspired merely by your sight The craters of your crest Where your endurance shines best And we clamor to see the dark side of the moon But Luna, that’s up to you Goddess of the Moon I’m content with watching you reach For the sea, I am not as broad or deep But I want you to believe, If only you could believe You were worth crashing down for Goddess of the Moon

Can you close the window? It covers us in snow Father leaves it agape And our breath takes its shape Father says it’s just right And it lets in the light His whiskey keeps him warm While we survive the storm Baby Lily cries, cold Susan’s blue fingers fold And my shoulders shudder We stare at the shutters Father thinks we feel his warmth But we only see storms His rage, we feel the blow Will you close the window?
4.
Hand in hand, feet in the sand Our faces to sea, our backs to the land The wind whips your hair, it seems you don't mind I've always loved that about you Sun sets down, we're lying now Your body's still warm in your cooling gown If you think you're weak, then you must be blind If only I could convince you Rising moon, middle of June Our laughter is lost to the afternoon My heart is bursting, and you don't know I've always wondered why you care Burning slow, our love will grow Or maybe we just feel the afterglow? Only time will tell, til then we'll just go Enjoying the memories we bear We can't say, where this road goes But if there's one thing that I know These candles left beneath our paper skin Will burn when our feet feel the sand again And I know that you want that too I've always loved that about you
