|
There's a house somewhere I know where's the fire's burning all night long |
|
There's a swing outside on the porch where I feel like I'll |
|
Rock away the dusk until the dawn |
|
And even though the wind may be howlin' |
|
The stars are bright and they push me on and on |
|
Chorus: |
|
There's a half moon risin' in the south eastern skies |
|
There's a cold wind blowing across the great divide |
|
And the stars they guide my way across the night |
|
There's a half moon rising |
|
It's pushin' me on to another mountain top |
|
Push me on, no no I'll never stop, push me on home |
|
There's a half moon rising in the south eastern skies tonight |
|
Now the shoes on my feet, those soles broken down |
|
And my coat is tattered and worn |
|
And the hunger in my belly, and the fever in my head |
|
Will vanish 'ere my first glimpse of home |
|
And even though the rain may now be fallin' |
|
The passion is deep and pushes me on |
|
[ Chorus ] |
|
There's a still at dawn like the sound of your loves breath |
|
As she lies sleeping |
|
Down below me now in the valley |
|
Is the only peace on earth that I ever want to know |
|
And her lips are as soft as I remember |
|
She alone has brought me back on home |
|
[ Chorus ] |
