Moon, If Ever
David Donnell Longstreth
Straight up to the moon
If ever soonish you should go
Bouncing like a tune
From a boombox I don't know
Up, up and away, oh
As the days go by unsung
Then when you return
My melody's begun
It's you, it's you
The vine curls and cues
It's you, it's you
The waves crash and regroup
If I see you later
When the paper lantern glows
Shinin' up the sky
I could sigh a breath of hope
Up, up and away, oh
Now the paper lantern sails
Back to join the moon
And soon I will exhale
It's you, it's you
The piper and the tune
It's you, it's you
Reflection and the pool
It's you, it's you
The mornin' and the dew
It's you, it's you
The smoke cloud and the boom
