Big Shining Circle
The Hunter Moon is waking up the horizon in the east
And the sunset was so beautiful tonight
My breath a gossamer lace that slowly drifts away
Backlit by the lunar's wedding white
A coyote's distant call makes me swoon
What keeps me coming back to this impossible balloon
The moon looks so big when it's low in the sky
Science will tell you it's a trick of the eye
When I paint my pictures, such a beautiful sight
When that big shining circle really lights up the night
Every thirty days, the whole world gazes up
And that big happy face returns a smile
We're connected to each other
For just a moment in the dark
And everything gets peaceful for a while
I fumble with my camera in the cold
Focusing on Tycho, wondering why this never gets old
The moon looks so big when it's low in the sky
Science will tell you it's a trick of the eye
When I paint my pictures, such a beautiful sight
When that big shining circle really lights up the night
The Sea of Serenity just gave me a wink
I'm not contemplating politics or the dripping bathroom sink
I can put aside my worries and give my soul a drink
Now the Sea of Clouds is laughing
And I wonder what she thinks
The moon looks so big when it's low in the sky
Science will tell you it's a trick of the eye
When I paint my pictures, such a beautiful sight
When that big shining circle really lights up
When that big shining circle really lights up the night
And the sunset was so beautiful tonight
My breath a gossamer lace that slowly drifts away
Backlit by the lunar's wedding white
A coyote's distant call makes me swoon
What keeps me coming back to this impossible balloon
The moon looks so big when it's low in the sky
Science will tell you it's a trick of the eye
When I paint my pictures, such a beautiful sight
When that big shining circle really lights up the night
Every thirty days, the whole world gazes up
And that big happy face returns a smile
We're connected to each other
For just a moment in the dark
And everything gets peaceful for a while
I fumble with my camera in the cold
Focusing on Tycho, wondering why this never gets old
The moon looks so big when it's low in the sky
Science will tell you it's a trick of the eye
When I paint my pictures, such a beautiful sight
When that big shining circle really lights up the night
The Sea of Serenity just gave me a wink
I'm not contemplating politics or the dripping bathroom sink
I can put aside my worries and give my soul a drink
Now the Sea of Clouds is laughing
And I wonder what she thinks
The moon looks so big when it's low in the sky
Science will tell you it's a trick of the eye
When I paint my pictures, such a beautiful sight
When that big shining circle really lights up
When that big shining circle really lights up the night
