Sister Moonshine

Oh, when I was a small boy

Well, I could see the magic in a day

Oh, but now I'm just a poor boy

Well maybe it's the price you have to pay

If you lock your dreams away

If no one wants to listen, what's the story?

I wish I'd been a minstrel

Just think of all the maidens I'd recall

Oh, I wish I'd been a gypsy

Then maybe I could read the crystal ball

'Cause surrounded by these walls

Just makes me feel uneasy

I said, "Hey, Sister Moonshine,

Won't you send me a little sun?"

I said, "Hey, Sister Moonshine,

I'm a stranger to everyone."

So make us all laugh, make us all cry

Make us all give, make us all try

Give us the secret, show us the lie

We'll strike up the music and light up the sky

Oh, if I was a lion

Well, I could be the king of all the plain

Oh, and if I was an eagle

Well, maybe I could fly above the rain

Oh, fly above the pain

But I know I'm only foolin'

I said, "Hey, Sister Moonshine,

Won't you send me a little sun?"

I said, "Hey, Sister Moonshine,

I'm a stranger to everyone."

So make us all laugh, make us all cry

Make us all give, make us all try

Well, give us the secret, show us the lie

We'll strike up the music and light up the sky

I said, "Hey, Sister Moonshine,"

I said, "Hey, Sister Moonshine,"

I said, "Hey, Sister Moonshine,"

I said, "Hey," I said "Hey, Sister Moonshine,"
