Sad Moon Lyrics

Sad moon
Old moon
You hide your smile tonight
Caught in a web of city light
The stars are gone
The stars are gone

The cow she jumped
That holy heifer of the heavens
It was her best bet
To chew through the net
But the stars
They did not return.

Sad moon
Old moon
You hide your smile tonight
Caught in a web of city light
The stars are gone
Your friends are gone

And men have grown so tall so tall
To reach out and touch your constant face
But the telling of this tale, it had to fall
To a child in a moment of grace

Sad moon
Old moon
You smile again so bright
Caught in a web of city light
On one small friend
You can depend
For a song and a story tonight
