As the Moon Starts to Rise
I could hear you laughing
When the pigeons got your napkin
You were barefoot in the blades of grass
I swear I can still hear you laugh
Picking berries off the vine
This one's yours and this one's mine
Remember in the winter time
It looked like they were dying
As the moon starts to rise up, tonight
We'll look up at the flashing lights
Wave as they fly away across the sky
Wonder who is up there in the planes
Looking through the telescope
Asking questions no one knows
I make up the answers
You said the stars were tiny dancers
You look so much bigger now
Time goes by so fast somehow
Another summer's come and gone
Soon the days won't last so long
As the moon starts to rise up, tonight
We look up at the flashing lights
Wave as they fly away across the sky
Wonder who is up there in the planes
Last night I came into your room
I told you I'd be leaving soon
You were almost sleeping
I could hear your heart beating
I sang you a lullaby
You asked me where I was going this time
Cleveland and the Finger Lakes
Back down toward the Chesapeake
As the moon starts to rise up, tonight
Try to find all the flashing lights
Wave at the sky as I fly away
I'll be waving back down from the plane
When the pigeons got your napkin
You were barefoot in the blades of grass
I swear I can still hear you laugh
Picking berries off the vine
This one's yours and this one's mine
Remember in the winter time
It looked like they were dying
As the moon starts to rise up, tonight
We'll look up at the flashing lights
Wave as they fly away across the sky
Wonder who is up there in the planes
Looking through the telescope
Asking questions no one knows
I make up the answers
You said the stars were tiny dancers
You look so much bigger now
Time goes by so fast somehow
Another summer's come and gone
Soon the days won't last so long
As the moon starts to rise up, tonight
We look up at the flashing lights
Wave as they fly away across the sky
Wonder who is up there in the planes
Last night I came into your room
I told you I'd be leaving soon
You were almost sleeping
I could hear your heart beating
I sang you a lullaby
You asked me where I was going this time
Cleveland and the Finger Lakes
Back down toward the Chesapeake
As the moon starts to rise up, tonight
Try to find all the flashing lights
Wave at the sky as I fly away
I'll be waving back down from the plane
