lyrics

Half moon on the rise
Cast your sideways smile
Unsettled uneven
Longing for completion
Though the night is lonely
And I'm searching for a friend
I look up and wonder
About the secrets in your head

Half moon through the trees
Bathe me in your sea
I shiver for shelter
Kneeling at your altar
You're always on the run
In this tango with the Earth
Though you grin I wonder if
The separation hurts?

Half of our faces catch the light
We show our pretty colors
Half of us hidden away
Even from ourselves
The shadow side we cannot see
We hardly know it's there
The aching in our marrow
Isn't going anywhere

Half moon for a day
You rise and fall away
Descending into darkness
Or towards full display
When you find your rest
Out there in the spheres
Who will be there with you
To wipe away your tears?
