lyrics
Prairie moon won’t you shine
Brighter than all these city lights
And take me home
Where the seven sisters rise
Am I still who I was?
Why did I ever leave the grace
Of your ancient sound
Where creation came alive
Am I still the son you gave your love to
Are we still as one, as god intended
When my day is done, I’m aching for your tides
Crescent moon on my mind
Take me back to where bridges burn
In my fathers town
They’re awaiting my return
Where the fish fall in love
Fill my cup til it rains for days
Like my grandma’s tears
In the warmth of her concern
Her dark almond eyes have never seen me
But I’ve always known she would receive me
I was so lost until she called me home
i belong with you tonight
low, the starry sky
nothing lives alone on high
Tell me, why should I?
Chorus
i belong with you tonight
low, the starry sky
nothing lives alone on high
Tell me, why should I?
Brighter than all these city lights
And take me home
Where the seven sisters rise
Am I still who I was?
Why did I ever leave the grace
Of your ancient sound
Where creation came alive
Am I still the son you gave your love to
Are we still as one, as god intended
When my day is done, I’m aching for your tides
Crescent moon on my mind
Take me back to where bridges burn
In my fathers town
They’re awaiting my return
Where the fish fall in love
Fill my cup til it rains for days
Like my grandma’s tears
In the warmth of her concern
Her dark almond eyes have never seen me
But I’ve always known she would receive me
I was so lost until she called me home
i belong with you tonight
low, the starry sky
nothing lives alone on high
Tell me, why should I?
Chorus
i belong with you tonight
low, the starry sky
nothing lives alone on high
Tell me, why should I?
