Moondog

When I was young and I was barely free Just a boy upon my mother's knee Was that the wind howling through the trees Or was that you Calling to me Calling to me You showed me where the candle flame was black I said oh babe I never noticed that And with your breasts pressed against my back You were Laughing in the bath Laughing in the bath Take a look at this face of mine Is it cool? Is it crystalline? Or a pale imitation A new tessellation Tell me what you see Moondog, you're all I need My mind keeps circling back to you Just like the universe it begs me to What frightens me is what frightens you Oh, babe, what are we gonna do? What are we gonna do? I'm breaking free with a deeper will The one I seek is a seeker still Always reaching Never teaching I know nothing who am I to instruct Moondog, you're outta luck Sometimes there's magic, sometimes it's hid Half of magic is just hiding I always loved you, just didn't know I did One day I just let the light in It was a barnburner in Galena, Illinois Fate hit me like a bolt of lightning Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain It's my life and I'm living in it Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain It's my life and I'm living in it Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain Tired of living in the pouring rain It's my life and I'm living in it Sometimes there's magic, sometimes it's hid Half of magic is just hiding
