In the Light of the Moon

 

In the Light of the Moon

 This song is about how I have the weird belief that everything in nature has a song - every tree has a song, every stone has a song, every animal has a song, everything has a song. And if we listen carefully, we might just hear those songs. And if I do, indeed, hear the songs of the trees, and I sing and play what I hear, I'll be like the moon reflecting the light of the sun (the songs of the trees are the sunlight).

The lyrics are:

Spirits are sending me music from all around
They're in the air, and I am singing on the ground
And I think I will hoot like a big, hairy owl
Music will make me toot, and I will start to howl

In the light of the moon
The light light light of the moon

Spirits of nature sing, but we are unaware
Yes, we've forgotten them, cuz we don't seem to care
If you listen, the music will come in dreams
Alighting like a feather on singing moon beams
I was listening at night, and I heard the trees
Their music, flying like kites, brought me to my knees
If I listen closely, their messages will abound
Their music, Heavenly, is rooted in the ground

In the light of the moon
The light light light of the moon

If I get a chance to hear the tree songs, I gotta be the moon
Reflecting back the light of their music, the light of the trees will be here soon

Spirits of the trees sing like they're the sun
And I am the moon, singing just for fun

In the light of the moon
The light light light of the moon
