Lyrics The Moon Is Nearly Full - Greg Brown

The Moon Is Nearly Full

The moon is nearly full
These old hills are full of light
The woman I love don’t want me
And people I just can’t feel right
I got a lot of friends
And they are so kind to me
But they’re just kind to a shadow
Of the man I used to be
She loves somebody else
That story’s older than the moon
I wrote my one little chapter
I hope to close the book real soon
Morning has to come
And the black sky turn to blue
She told me that she loved me
While she let another man come to her
The moon is nearly full
I only want to hold her tight
Until they put me under the ground
People, I ain’t never gonna feel right
