Sun And Moon And Stars
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.
The sun, the moon and the stars, they make the wind blow
It took me twenty years to understand
But lost to me is how the lives of friends go
Like autumn leaves in oklahoma wind
But it made me strong to be on my own
It never did me no harm to live all alone
Oh, but now and then in the color of the evening
Drunken in a barroom with a fan turning, i've come to miss a few
This afternoon was cloudy then the rains came
Third day of my first day san miguel
Seems lately that i'm doubling as storm bait
I've been followed like a shadow through the dell
But it made me strong to be on my own
It never did me no harm to live all alone
Oh, but now and then in the color of the evening
Drunken in a barroom with a fan turning, i've come to miss a few
Dear friends and relations, see what i have done
I've gathered all my fingers in one place
They breathe a breath that's deadly stale since they tooled a song for me
I guess mechanics never really set the pace
'cause i'm back and i'm strong, i'm here on my own
It never did me no harm to live all alone
Oh, but now and then in the color of the evening
Drunken in a barroom with a fan turning, i've come to miss a few
The sun, the moon and the stars, they make the wind blow
It took me twenty years to understand
But lost to me is how the lives of friends go
Like autumn leaves in oklahoma wind
Oh, now and then, it's in the color of the evening
Drunken in a barroom with a fan turning, i'll come to miss a few
