Calling the Moon (Acoustic Revisited Version)

The moon wanted

More of my night

I turned off the engine

And the headlightsThe trees appeared

As they'd never been gone

I promised the fields

I'd return from now onAnd the moon kept on rising

I had no more to say

I put my road maps away

And surrendered the dayAnd I know you'll be

Calling me soon

And if I don't answer

I'm calling the moonCalling the moon

I was calling her then

I'm wondering will she take me again?

Oh, I am calling the moonWhen I called

The moon back to me

I thought

She wanted my beautyI shone in the best

That vanity buys

I covered the path

Where my life turned to liesAnd the moon kept on rising

But I felt nothing at all

She comes when the empire falls

And shines on crumbling wallsCalling the moon

By the name that she chose

As Tennessee wandered

In moth eaten robesOh, I am calling the moon

Calling the moon

Oh, I'm calling the moonOh, make sense

Of me, night

I can see so much

From this cold heightThe moon said

"Oh, darkness my work is done

I've poured this bottle

Of light from the sun"But their anger keeps on rising

And they don't understand

I've shown them all that I can

That the world is at handAnd I know

They'll be calling me soon

And if I don't answer

I'm only the moonI can see by her light

This one's going out

To the moon tonight

Oh, I am calling the moonCalling the moon

'Cause I know what it's worth

To tug at the seas

And illumine the earthOh, I am calling the moon

Oh, I am calling the moon
