In the Moonlight Songtext

von Tracy Bonham

Over the grapevine two eugene girls spilling margaritas on the shakespeare
Heading home for summer feet on the dash the future wide open before us
It would take me years to comprehend
The things you said as we aproached the
Society of cows millions of cows all waiting for something
And they glowed in the moonlight
Made it to corning and then the peugeot
She started to sputter we didn't know
We would spend 8 hours in the texaco
Til they finally found out she was dry as a bone
Dry as a bone and the bartles and james
Must have clouded our brains

And we glowed in the moonlight
And we glowed in the moonlight
Stars in my eyes
Squirrels in my head
Digging and burrying
All the things you said and save it for later…
You asked me why i was flirting so hard with the gasoline man i didn't know
He wasn't good looking even when he smiled you could count his teeth on your one hand
So we started to giggle like little girls do even though it's not funny
When we got to mount shasta we had to stop
And anthropomorphise the mountain
She looked so pretty steady and strong standing alone in her nighty
Talking to god talkin to god
And she glowed in the moonlight
Thinking she had the answer when all along
It was you who said it
It was you who said it
To yourself be true.
To yourself be true.
