Moon Upon the Left

Lyrics

[Chorus] There's a moon upon the left And there's a star upon the right There's a nightingale a-singin' To the wondrous summer night There are gentle deer a-grazin' In the meadow with no fright [Post-Chorus] And there's no past, and there's no future, only now We have chanced upon this fragile scene somehow [Verse 1] And I can hear the clover whisper Oh so, softly as we pass As we find our way to somewhere Down the old familiar path [Verse 2] And all the trees are shyly watching As I slowly take your hand And when our bodies come together There's a hush across the land [Verse 3] Now, there's a cottontail a-watchin' O'er his lady as she sleeps And I'm a lover of tradition Here's my heart, it's yours to keep [Verse 4] Won't you take me as I'm giving And we'll be lovers in our flight As there's a moon upon the left And there's a star upon the right? [Fiddle Solo] [Verse 5] All the little people living near The clearing by the pond They are dancing in the moonlight They'll be dancing 'til the dawn [Verse 6] And the moon looks down upon them Like the fat and laughin' man He's the keeper of the magic He's the leader of the band [Verse 7] Now, somewhere there's a cottage And somewhere there's a door And somewhere there are ponies Running wild across the moor [Verse 8] There are lilies of the valley Nodding gaily in our wake And our hearts are all on fire And the night is ours to take [Chorus] 'Cause there's a moon upon the left There's a star upon the right There's a nightingale a-singin' To the wondrous summer night There are gentle deer a-grazin' In the meadow with no fright [Post-Chorus] And there's no past, and there's no future, only now And we have chanced upon this fragile scene somehow
