Calling The Moon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The moon wanted more of my nights
I turned off the engine and the headlights
And the trees appeared as they'd never been gone
I promised the fields I'd return from now on
And the moon kept on rising
There was no more to say
I put my roadmaps away
And surrendered the day

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know you'll be calling me soon
And if I don't answer I'm
[Chorus]
Calling the moon
I was calling her then
I'm wondering will she take me again
Oh, I'm calling the moon

[Verse 2]
When I called thе moon back to me
I thought all she wanted was bеauty
I showed her the best that vanity buys
I covered the path where my life turned to lies
And the moon kept on rising
But I felt nothing at all
She shines on crumbling walls
When the empire falls

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know you'll be calling me soon And if I don't answer I'm

[Chorus]
Calling the moon
By the name that she chose
As Tennessee wandered in moth-eaten robes
Oh, I'm calling the moon
[Verse 3]
Oh, make sense of me, night
I can see so much from this cold height
The moon said now my work is done
I've poured this bottle of light from the sun
But their anger keeps on rising
They don't understand
I've shown them all that I can
That the world is at hand

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know you'll be calling me soon
And if I don't answer

[Chorus]
I'm calling the moon
I can see by the light
This one's going out to the moon tonight
Oh, I'm calling the moon
Calling the moon
I was calling her then
I'm wondering will she take me again
Oh, I'm calling the moon
