The Moonbeam Song

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.

Have you ever watched a moonbeam

As it slid across your windowpane

Or struggled with a bit of rain

Or danced about the weathervane

Or sat along a moving train

And wondered where the train has been

Or on a fence with bits of crap

Around its bottom

Blown there by a windbeam

Who searches for the moonbeam

Who was last seen

Looking at the tracks

Of the careless windbeam

Or moving to the clacks

Of the tireless freight train

And lighting up the sides

Of the weathervane

And the bits of rain

And the windowpane

And the eyes of those

Who think they saw what happened...

Have you ever watched a moonbeam

As it slid across your windowpane

Or struggled with a bit of rain

Or danced about the weathervane

Or sat along a moving train

And wonder where the train has been?

Looking at the tracks

Of the careless windbeam

Or moving to the clacks

Of the tireless freight train

And lighting up the sides

Of the weathervane

And the bits of rain

And the windowpane

And the eyes of those

Who think they saw what happened...?
