Joshua's Moon

©2003 Graham Andrews

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(V1)

Joshua just wouldn't go to sleep

Out of his bed he used to creep

to the window

Gazing up into star-filled skies

Head on the sill with sleepy eyes

Who filled the moon with fireflies

to make it glow?

(Ch)

Joshua's moon is a golden balloon

high over hill tops and cherry wood smoke

Joshua's moon floats to the tune

of the beer-bellied bullfrog croak

So big, so bright

On a beautiful night

but its over and done too soon

Hurry back now

Joshua's moon

(V2)

Joshua's teens brought a whole new world

Chevys and college and chasing girls

for the first time

Starry eyed passion with Anna-Marie

Sharing true love under their tree

Pledging devotion eternally

in the moonlight

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Age after age

everything's handed down

The moon still circles

everything comes around

(V3 -short)

Joshua junior won't sleep tonight

until daddy rocks him in the moonlight

Anna-Marie says its alright

Just one more time

(Chorus)
