When the Moon Shines

When The Moon Shines

When the moon shines it’s the sun trying to fool you

When love grows you better hide for what coming

I didn’t plan on you leaving me so soon

Be aware when the wind is trying to guide you

Determined as quicksand you slowly pull me under

Let your bonfire save me from my harshness

And be heard as a preacher in his church

Oh, let your love come down, down in the hole

Down where your quicksand slowly pulls me under

Hail hail for blues, hail hail for fire, Oh let your love take me higher

Down in the hole there’s a burning desire, Oh let your love take me higher

I woke to the sound of a skirmish in the hallway

The room so dark I can’t tell its night or day

The plan is not getting out of here alive

The whole idea is getting out of here with you

Out to where your quicksand slowly pulls me under

Hail hail for blues, hail hail for fire, Oh let your love take me higher

Down in the hole there’s a burning desire, Oh let your love take me higher

When a wildflower grows upon your bosom

And all you got left is just a twinkle in your eye

Oh, and you fail to be seen, seen in the dark

In darkness your quicksand slowly pulls me under

Hail hail for blues, hail hail for fire, Oh let your love take me higher

Down in the hole there’s a burning desire, Oh let your love take me higher
