Emmylou Harris - Moon Song lyrics

rate me

(Patty Griffin) Followed your road till the sky ran out Followed your love till love was in doubt Followed your love till it never really was at all Feeling stupid and hollow Now the moon's gonna' follow me home Waited for you till the snow fell down Over my skin like a thin nightgown Waited for you but you never came around at all Waited for you till they pulled the plug Bartender emptied out his big tip jug They swept all the floors Vacuumed the rugs and went home Drank all I could swallow Now the moon's gonna' follow me home Time go easy on me tonight I'm one of the lost sheep alright Take what you must, take what you must Of what I've lost as I have roamed Let the moon follow me home Followed your tears with a washing pail I followed your story I followed your tail Followed you straight through the Doors of your jail cell too Followed your voice in the darkness soft A wind came through and carried it off I followed your love till it never really was at all Drank all I could swallow Now the moon's gonna' follow me home Drank all I could swallow Now the moon's gonna' follow me home
