Lyrics
Shepherd Moon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We've fallen in love
With distant lands
We've offered it up
With both hands
Though we've left
No frogs unkissed
I think there's something
That we've missed
We've read the self-help shelf
Ten times over
We've worshipped gods
We can't name
And though we've combed the land for the four leaf clover
We've lost the pieces to the game
We're just looking
For a shepherd moon
That will let us go and just fall in
It won't let us stray or flee too soon
It'll just lead us back home again
We feed our kids
A balanced meal
We talk about
Our feelings
With Supermom still
At the wheel
We're somehow left reeling
Somewhere in that ring of moons
I think something's awaiting us
Something simple
I hope something soon
Something that's gonna redeem us
We're just looking
For a shepherd moon
That will let us go and just fall in
It won't let us stray or flee too soon
It'll just lead us back home again
So no more serving our hearts
On silver platters
No more clinging to
The northern pole
We're finally gathering up
What's been scattered
We pledge allegiance to our souls
We're just looking
For a shepherd moon
That will let us go and just fall in
It won't let us stray or flee too soon
It'll just lead us back home again
Don't give me none of
Your 800 numbers
You can keep your
Money back guarantee
My neuroses just may be
The 8th wonder
But I'm happy to just let it be
Don't sell me none of
Your psychic healing
Real healing doesn't grow on tv
Stop capitalizing on our feelings
Real healing is always free
