Moonshine
On the other side of all that's here and now Between first morning light and the slightest hours There's another world we'll never understand And a sideways glance might steal you a chance To see what passes in the moonshine To see what's caught up in the moonshine Like a thief you breathe with quiet urgency Don't make a move and then you just might see A dancer spinning in the moonshine My angel dances in the moonshine If you don't believe me I can understand But save all your pity for another man When she smiles, love comes so easy And moonshine's alive in my dreams A distant song heard like a voice inside It draws me out beneath the midnight sky A whisper guides me through the blackest wood Then suddenly a clearing in the glow of the moon I see her dancing in the moonshine This angel calls me to the moonshine If it's the last I'm seen I'm sure you'll understand But spare me your pity, I'm a happy man When she smiles, time loses meaning And moonshine becomes all that's real Who am I to try and justify The mysteries we've learned to hide I'll take a pass on all that's sanctified And leave this all behind And leave it all behind When she smiles, love comes so easy And moonshine's alive in my dreams When she smiles, time loses meaning And moonshine becomes all that's real If it's the last I'm seen I'm sure you'll understand But spare me your pity, I'm a happy man
