She don’t even understand what she does to make me mad

I’m beyond our love, this tension that we had

Put it in the past, our love will last if your time goes slow or fast

It’s my tradition, I’ll take my position and watch the whole galaxy glisten



On cloudy days I bet the wind blows an extra breath for you to breathe

On sunny days I bet the windows are extra clear for you to see

You always seem to be away, you stop in but you never stay

I may be led astray

(Let the moonlight shine)



She don’t even understand what she does to make me mad

I’m beyond our love, this tension that we had, uh-huh

Put it in the past, our love will last if your time goes slow or fast

It’s my tradition, I’ll take my position and watch the whole galaxy glisten

By the light of the moon is where I’ll meet you at

I got your back and my love is always intact

Cause when we die, we going to the same place

So take my arm and let me lead you to the moon’s face



My memory recalls it all, the up times and the downfalls

I hear your voice through the hallowed halls

It ain’t you, it’s the sky talking to me

When I was young at times I used to wonder if you knew me

I take that back, no sympathy

Just hear my ten-year symphony

This is a gift from me

Let the light of the bright moon shine



She don’t even understand what she does to make me mad

I’m beyond our love, this tension that we had, uh-huh

Put it in the past, our love will last if your time goes slow or fast

It’s my tradition, I’ll take my position and watch the whole galaxy glisten

By the light of the moon is where I’ll meet you at

I got your back and my love is always intact

Cause when we die, we going to the same place

So take my arm and let me lead you to the moon’s face

By the light of the moon is where I’ll meet you at

I got your back and my love is always intact

Cause when we die, we going to the same place

So take my arm and let me lead you to the moon’s face



In ’76 I was born into the mix

Kiss the crucifix, I live my life in the sticks

And this moonlight shinin’ has got me checkin’ silver linin’

Collect calls is all I’m findin’ when my family’s dining

I feel betrayed in a way but then again

It ain’t my life to be lived

Cause yo she gotta do the temperature

Just be happy that she’s healthy is what they tell me

But they don’t feel me

And they don’t know my brother’s in her belly

And all I really want in life is the average

Ain’t no luxuries to fuck with me I’ll manage

But now the light of the moon has got me singin’ tunes

Playin’ tunes, I’m wonderin’ if you’ll be home soon

But if you ain’t, that’s aight cause I ain’t bout to lapse

I win awards, catch acclaim while I’m makin’ stacks

And when you back we can act like you ain’t never left

Cause I got love to the moon until my last breath



She don’t even understand what she does to make me mad

I’m beyond our love, this tension that we had, uh-huh

Put it in the past, our love will last if your time goes slow or fast

It’s my tradition, I’ll take my position and watch the whole galaxy glisten

By the light of the moon is where I’ll meet you at

I got your back and my love is always intact

Cause when we die, we going to the same place

So take my arm and let me lead you to the moon’s face

By the light of the moon is where I’ll meet you at

I got your back and my love is always intact

Cause when we die, we going to the same place

So take my arm and let me lead you to the moon’s face
