Sister moon will be my guide

In your blue blue shadows I would hide

All good people asleep tonight

I'm all by myself in your silver light

I would gaze at your face the whole night through

I'd go out of my mind but for you



Lying in a mother's arms

The primal root of a woman's charms

I'm a stranger to the sun

My eyes are too weak

How cold is a heart

When it's warmth that he seeks?

You watch every night, you don't care what I do

I'd go out of my mind, but for you

I'd go out of my mind, but for you



My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun

My hunger for her explains everything I've done

To howl at the moon the whole night through

And they really don't care if I do

I'd go out of my mind, but for you



Sister Moon
