The Moon Is Down

There ain't no moon tonight
It's hard for me to see
But if i can catch a glimpse of you
It helps me feel at ease
It helps me sleep

All my life i've watched you dance along
To music that i can't hear
I ain't equipped to hear those songs

I like the way you talk about all the things you've seen
You make the world seem small for a time
Though it's still too big for me

All my life i've watched you dance along
To music that i can't hear
I ain't equipped to hear those songs

You were never at rest
You were always somewhere-bound
But as for me, i'm the simple kind
I'll live and die in this town
And i know my home ain't big enough
That it would only keep you down
And i'd hate to see you caged
So all that i ask
Is you come say hi when you're around
It ain't much
But it's good enough for me
