Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Saw it in a dream
A girl rides across her native land
Running for her life
On a painted horse as fast as she can
[Verse 2]
I could tell that she was restless
I could see she was afraid
Only the moon to guide her way
[Verse 3]
Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Riding alone
[Verse 4]
She's a lonely child
Longing for the one who left her side
Lost out in the wild
Knowing hungry wolves might hear her cry
[Verse 5]
If only I could help her
With a wave of my hand
I'd promise her the moon would never die
[Verse 6]
Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Riding alone
[Verse 7]
She rode beyond the mountains
Through the valleys below
Following her heart into the night
[Verse 8]
Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Spirit of the moonrise
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Riding alone
[Verse 9]
Riding alone
[Verse 10]
Carry me home
Spirit of the moonrise
Ooh, spirit of the moonrise
[Verse 11]
Spirit of the moonrise
