A Better Moon Lyrics - Jethro Tull

I see you better now, shaded in deeper blue 

Hardly needing to carry the find-your-way-lamp 

Down to the river 

And tonight flies a better moon 

Sad water buffalo lie fast near the shallows 

A splash revealing the fly catching fishes 

Dark Gods silently watching 

And tonight flies a better moon 

I guess you've known lovers here, compliant in passion 

Softly laid in the old reed bed 

Harshly lit in the noon sun 

And tonight flies a better moon

Now cloaked in this milky light, new as the virgin dawn 

Shrouded sweetly in all kinds of mystery 

Turn, smile and then are gone 

And tonight flies a better moon 

And tonight flies a better moon 

And tonight flies a better moon
