I saw the moon rising...in the New Forest...a song that celebrates the idea of light being a form of hope amongst the darkness, the light of love, friends and that we can switch our own inner light on...but within it a reflection on a darker time xxx
lyrics
I see the moon rising, the angle of its glow it falls on me, and when I'm in the darkness I can still find peace, I see the moon shining, I'm watching clouds they're running so fast across the sky, and i spark another cigarette and I drink some wine, so I can leave a little light on, I know that I don't need to feel alone, I got my Pippy by by side and in his eyes a little light on, even when the night seems so long, I leave a light on. Only I only I knew that I needed to feed off of your pain, how vain, how vain to think that i could heal your soul again...Only I, only I saw there in your heart lay the shadows of your fears, those tears, sweet tears. Now I feel a new love shining, and it finds its way and climbs its way inside of my bones, and now the flame it flickers in a place unknown, so I can leave a little light on I know that I don't need to feel alone, I got a song inside my mouth and it turns a little light on, even when the night seems so long, I leave a light on.
