Lasso The Moon Lyrics - Level 42

She carries the water from the well in the morning 

while the sand burns her feet the sun only stares 

and the loneliness lingers with slow grasping fingers 

as the afternoon withers the flowers in her hair 

Then night fills the sky as she sits on the hillside 

and memories drift by like clouds past the stars 

recalling romances and all the bright chances 

but none of them lasted. they passed through her heart 

And she says - 

where is a man who can build a good fire 

with a passion as wide as the sky at high noon 

a man whose hand is strong as his longing 

where is the man who can lasso the moon

She falls asleep and her dreams are her blanket 

and she shares with the moon the secret she knows 

as the dawn leaves its tears to wash the dry valley 

the tears of a woman can wash a man's soul 

And she says - 

where is a man who can build a good fire 

with a passion as wide as the sky at high noon 

a man whose hand is strong as his longing 

where is the man who can lasso the moon 

And she says - 

where is a man who can build a good fire 

with a passion as wide as the sky at high noon 

a man whose hand is strong as his longing 

where is the man who can lasso the moon 

and I say - 

I am a man who can build a good fire 

and my passion's as wide as the sky at high noon 

come take my hand, it's as strong as your longing 

just say the word and I'll lasso the moon
