| When that moon is on the rise
|
| And the light gets in your eyes
|
| And stirs somethin' that used to lie
|
| Inside you 'till you ask why
|
| Why ain’t I just passin' by
|
| Like that moon that’s on the rise
|
| It shouldn’t come as no surprise
|
| I been back here time and time
|
| Like that sun that brings the spring
|
| I know I’ll be back again
|
| If you don’t know what you do
|
| When it’s over and we’re through
|
| Watch what happens every spring
|
| What was dead is live again
|
| So why should you be odd man out
|
| You should forget all your doubts
|
| While some people look for purpose
|
| Their life passes by
|
| Right before their eyes
|
| And if the purpose is to do good
|
| That’s an easy way to live everyday
|
| If you would
|
| (GUITAR SOLO)
|
| So when the moon is on the rise
|
| And that light gets in your eyes
|
| And stirs something' that used to lie
|
| Inside you 'till you ask why
|
| Why ain’t I just passin' by
|
| Like that moon that’s on the rise
|
| It shouldn’t come as no surprise
|
| I been back here time and time
|
| Like that sun that brings the spring
|
| I know that I’ll be back again
|
| Like that moon that’s on the rise
|
| I know I’ll be back in time
|
| I know I’ll be back in time
|
| I know I’ll be back in time
|
| I know I’ll be back in time
