lyrics

You're makin' tha ole moon smile
And forget all the while
The weighty stare of the sun
Whose gaze from which he can't get away
You're makin' tha ole moon smile
And spread the tidal blanket
Piece of you caught in his eyes
Upstairs, the clouds caught in your hair

You're makin' tha' ole moon smile
And ecstatic, he plummets down to the sea
Then gayly splashes and sings
A song or a giant sea snake held by its golden tail

You're makin' tha' ole moon smile
You're makin' tha' ole moon smile
You're makin' tha' ole moon smile
You're makin' tha' ole moon smile

Thank you for takin' care of yourself
Well, you sure took care of me
I wanna watch you dance all life long
I'm willing and you're free
But that my track circles the world
And mostly you stay home
I'm but a satellite doomed to orbit you and moan

You're makin' tha' ole moon smile
You're makin' tha' ole moon smile
You're makin' tha' ole moon smile
You're makin' tha' ole moon smile

My latest studio record Love & Harm consists of a modern country rock sound featuring the pedal steel of Jon Hyde (Introducing) and amazing players you'd recognize from playing on stage with me. Living in Germantown, Philadlephia, started a recording project called Opal Eskar, check that out too. ... more
