Looking for the Moon
My heart is in the mountains, while my body's on this train
My head is anywhere but in today
It's cloudy in the city, and they say it looks like rain
God, just once I'd long to hear the conductor say
Are you lookin' for the moon?
Would you dance with her tonight?
Would you chase across the shadows as she goes slippin' out of sight?
Leavin' common sense behind you for a joy that ends so soon
Rushin' through the forest blind, never knowin' what you'll find
Lookin' for the moon
The train is filled with strangers, and every stop adds more
We're racin' toward the glass and granite walls
While I'm dreamin' of my river where the rushing rapids roar
And from a somewhere deep inside my spirit calls
Are you lookin' for the moon?
Would you dance with her tonight?
Would you chase across the shadows as she goes slippin' out of sight?
Leavin' common sense behind you for a joy that ends so soon
Rushin' through the forest blind, never knowin' what you'll find
Lookin' for the moon
We pull in to the station and I join the taxi line
It's rainin' now like it means to rain all day
This city has ten million dreams and not one of them is mine
So I turn myself around and I walk away
And I'll go lookin' for the moon, and I'll dance with her tonight
And I'll chase across the shadows as she goes slippin' out of sight
Leavin' common sense behind me, for a joy that ends so soon
Rushin' through the forest blind, never knowin' what I'll find
Lookin' for the moon
Are you looking for the moon?
My head is anywhere but in today
It's cloudy in the city, and they say it looks like rain
God, just once I'd long to hear the conductor say
Are you lookin' for the moon?
Would you dance with her tonight?
Would you chase across the shadows as she goes slippin' out of sight?
Leavin' common sense behind you for a joy that ends so soon
Rushin' through the forest blind, never knowin' what you'll find
Lookin' for the moon
The train is filled with strangers, and every stop adds more
We're racin' toward the glass and granite walls
While I'm dreamin' of my river where the rushing rapids roar
And from a somewhere deep inside my spirit calls
Are you lookin' for the moon?
Would you dance with her tonight?
Would you chase across the shadows as she goes slippin' out of sight?
Leavin' common sense behind you for a joy that ends so soon
Rushin' through the forest blind, never knowin' what you'll find
Lookin' for the moon
We pull in to the station and I join the taxi line
It's rainin' now like it means to rain all day
This city has ten million dreams and not one of them is mine
So I turn myself around and I walk away
And I'll go lookin' for the moon, and I'll dance with her tonight
And I'll chase across the shadows as she goes slippin' out of sight
Leavin' common sense behind me, for a joy that ends so soon
Rushin' through the forest blind, never knowin' what I'll find
Lookin' for the moon
Are you looking for the moon?
