Cowboy Junkies 01 - Crescent Moon Lyrics

Reach a hand to the crescent moon
Grab hold of the hollow
If she sits in the palm of the left
That moon will be fuller tomorrow
If she sits in the palm of the right
That moon is on the wane
And the love of the one who shares your bed
Will be doing just the same

'wont you come with me, she said,
'theres plenty of room in my iron bed
Youre looking cold and tired
And more than a little human
I know Im not part of the life you had planned,
But I think once your body feels my hand
Your mind will change
And your heart will lose its pain

Out among the fields gently hipped
Beneath the corn,
a__iniboine bones beneath the highway
He stood there and he thought of home
A finger traces the path of a satellite
Youre drawn to a distant copse of trees
A voice as sweet as mares tail
Clings to the prairie breeze

'wont you come with me, she said,
'theres plenty of room in my iron bed
Youre looking cold and tired
And more than a little human
I know Im not part of the life you had planned,
But I think once your body feels my hand
Your mind will change
And your heart will lose its pain

Do I reach for you
When I know youre on the wane?
Do I sense you when I know youre not around?
Do I search for you
When I know you cant be found?
Do I dare to speak your name?

Raise your eyes to a moonless sky
And try to wish upon a rising star
Search all you want for her blessing
But you wont find her sparkling there
Now cast your eyes to a part of the sky
Where nothing but darkness unfolds
And watch as all around you
She reveals the brilliance of secrets untold
